Frequently asked questions
What are the primary safety benefits of selecting APAR Anushakti HR FR PVC wires for my home's electrical wiring?
The APAR Anushakti HR FR PVC (Heat Resistant, Flame Retardant PVC) cable is specifically designed to provide enhanced fire safety for residential and light commercial electrical installations. The “FR” (Flame Retardant) PVC insulation is formulated to restrict the spread of fire, significantly reducing the risk of flames propagating through your electrical system. With a high Critical Oxygen Index () and Temperature Index (), these wires are self-extinguishing and do not catch fire on their own. This critical feature helps to contain potential electrical fires, offering vital time for evacuation and minimizing property damage, making it a reliable fire-safe house wire option.
How does the advanced E-beam technology impact the performance and longevity of APAR Anushakti HR FR PVC cables?
APAR Anushakti HR FR PVC cables leverage cutting-edge Electron Beam (E-beam) Technology to provide superior performance and an extended service life of over 50 years. This innovative process structurally modifies the PVC insulation, resulting in a remarkable 50% increase in current carrying capacity compared to conventional wires, ensuring more efficient power delivery and reduced heat build-up. The E-beam irradiation also enhances the cable’s heat resistance up to , making it short-circuit resistant and melt-resistant even when in contact with hot objects. Furthermore, this technology contributes to the cable’s anti-termite properties and very low leakage, offering a highly durable and energy-efficient solution for modern homes and buildings.
Does APAR Anushakti HR FR PVC cable comply with industry standards, and what makes it a reliable choice for Indian households?
Yes, APAR Anushakti HR FR PVC cable adheres to and often far exceeds the minimum standard requirements, specifically conforming to IS 694:2010. This Indian Standard specifies requirements for PVC insulated cables up to 1100V, including those with Flame Retardant properties. The cable’s compliance is demonstrated by its impressive technical characteristics, such as a Temperature Index and Oxygen Index . Additionally, its construction with finely drawn annealed bare copper strands using electrolytic grade ensures high conductivity and flexibility, while being manufactured using Twin Screw technology for insulation integrity.
