The wire a house actually gets wired with. One 1.5 mm² solid copper conductor, PVC insulated to 450/750 V, pulled through conduit for light points, switch drops and small socket circuits — 19.5 A on method C, 12.1 Ω/km, 29 mV/A/m. Solid means one wire, not a bundle: it pushes through a conduit run without buckling and clamps hard in a terminal, and it is not meant to be flexed once it is in. The trade's 3/.029 is the stranded version of the same nominal size; this is the solid one. Drawn on the Pilone line in Lahore.

Check the coil before you pay for it
Every coil leaves our factory with a QR code printed on the packaging. Scan it and the factory record for that batch opens: brand, cable size, batch number, year of manufacture and conductor. Compare the batch number on screen with the one printed on your coil — if the two do not match, it did not come from us.
| Property | Value |
|---|---|
| Conductor | Plain annealed copper, class 1 solid (single wire, not stranded) |
| Nominal area | 1.5 mm² × 1 core |
| Construction | Solid — no stranding |
| Max conductor resistance at 20°C | 12.1 Ω/km |
| Current capacity (method C, 2 loaded) | 19.5 A |
| Voltage drop | 29 mV/A/m |
| Voltage rating | 450/750 V |
| Insulation | PVC, single insulated (no separate outer sheath) |
| Conductor copper weight | ≈ 13.3 kg/km |
| Reference standards | IEC 60228 (conductors), IEC 60227 (PVC cables) |
Worked example, using the 29 mV/A/m in the table. A lighting circuit carrying 6 A over a 30 m run loses 6 × 30 × 29 ÷ 1000 = 5.2 V. BS 7671 allows 3% on a lighting circuit, which is 6.6 V of a 220 V supply — so 30 m is close to the line, and 40 m is over it: 6 × 40 × 29 ÷ 1000 = 7.0 V. That is why a long veranda, boundary-wall or courtyard light run moves up to 2.5mm single core solid cable at 18 mV/A/m. The distance forces it, not the number of bulbs.
Ceiling roses, fan points and switch legs pulled through conduit during a first fix, where the wire has to slide and then stay put.
Light socket points and ceiling-fan wiring. The cable holds 19.5 A; the breaker on the circuit is set lower, and the electrician picks it against the load.
Short fixed links inside a distribution board or control panel, where a solid conductor clamps under a screw and does not creep.
