How to Use
- Select the gauge matching your circuit's load — undersized wire overheats, so check with your electrician for anything beyond basic lighting.
- 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.
