How to Use
- Select the gauge matching your circuit's load — for whole-home projects, the 180m coil reduces the number of joints needed versus multiple 90m coils.
- Use colour-coded wires (Red/Black/Green typically for phase/neutral/earth per your electrician's convention) to keep wiring identifiable for future repairs.
- Run wire through conduit or casing-capping, avoiding sharp bends that stress the insulation.
- Have a licensed electrician terminate and test all connections before energising the circuit.
Frequently Asked Questions
Why choose the 180m coil over 90m?
It's a better fit for larger wiring runs — new construction, full-home rewiring, or multi-room circuits — where fewer coil changes mean fewer joints and less handling.
Which gauge do I need for my project?
Most homes use 1.5 sq mm for lighting and 2.5 sq mm for sockets, with 4-6 sq mm reserved for kitchen/heavy-load circuits — confirm exact sizing with your electrician based on your load calculation.
