Choose the right conductor size for each circuit — 1 sq mm, 1.5 sq mm, 2.5 sq mm, 4 sq mm and 6 sq mm
| Wire Size | Current Capacity (Approx.) | Voltage Rating | Common Application | Insulation Type |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1 sq mm | 10–12 A | Up to 1100V AC | Light points, ceiling fans, small fittings | FR-LSH / FR PVC |
| 1.5 sq mm | 14–16 A | Up to 1100V AC | Light circuits, fans, general wiring Most Popular | FR-LSH / FR PVC |
| 2.5 sq mm | 18–22 A | Up to 1100V AC | Socket circuits, AC points, appliances Most Popular | FR-LSH / FR PVC |
| 4 sq mm | 25–30 A | Up to 1100V AC | High-load circuits, water heaters, heavy appliances | FR-LSH / FR PVC |
| 6 sq mm | 32–40 A | Up to 1100V AC | Main distribution circuits, industrial light loads | FR-LSH / FR PVC |
Current capacity values are approximate and depend on installation conditions, ambient temperature and load type. Consult a licensed electrician for exact sizing.
Electrical projects may use products from several leading wire companies in India. Product specifications, conductor size, insulation and genuine supply should guide the final choice.
