How many meters are in a 6mm wire coil?

The standard length for one coil of 6mm wire (from Eastern Cables) is 100 yards, which equals 91.4 meters.

What is the difference between a plug wire and a flexible 6mm wire coil?

A plug wire is a solid copper conductor used for fixed connections, whereas the flexible 6mm wire coil (which we supply) has a tinned copper strand conductor (Class 5) and is more flexible for bending and movable connections, while maintaining the same quality and safety standards.

What is the price of a 6mm wire coil in Saudi Arabia?

The price of a 6mm wire coil varies depending on the geographical location (Riyadh, Jeddah, Dammam) and current stock availability. We offer the best market prices with a guarantee of quality and compliance with British and international standards.

Is 6mm wire resistant to heat and humidity?

Yes, the insulation is made of heat-resistant PVC (105 degrees Celsius), making it resistant to humidity, UV rays, and high heat, suitable for use in the harsh Saudi environment.

Detailed Technical Specifications for 6mm Wire Coil

The 6mm wire coil from the Sharqia Cables is the ideal choice for electrical projects in 2026, providing precise technical specifications that ensure safety and performance. The conductor features a "Tin-Plated Copper Strand" (Class 5) to guarantee high flexibility and excellent electrical conductivity, even in high temperatures reaching up to 45 degrees Celsius in some regions of Saudi Arabia. The wire is insulated with heat-resistant PVC (105 degrees Celsius), making it ideal for both indoor and outdoor use, and completely resistant to humidity and salts that affect coastal areas.

Wire dimensions are precisely defined to meet professional installation needs: total diameter of 4.70mm with an insulation thickness of 0.8mm, capable of withstanding an electrical voltage of up to 600/1000 volts. The specific weight of the coil is 70 kilograms per kilometer, and the standard length of a single coil is 91.4 meters (100 yards). These precise specifications make the wire compliant with national and international safety standards such as BS 6231 and BS EN 60228, ensuring the project meets legal requirements in Saudi Arabia.

How to Choose Between "Fanar" and "Mabrum" Wire for a 6mm Coil?

Many of our clients ask about the difference between Mabrum and Fanar wire when purchasing a 6mm wire coil. Mabrum wire features a solid copper conductor and is best for fixed device connections and main distribution boards to operate with high efficiency and reduce the chance of conductor overheating. Fanar wire, on the other hand, has a stranded copper conductor (Class 5) and is more flexible, making it suitable for connections requiring bending or movement, such as connections inside circuit breakers or moving devices.

The coil we offer on your site (YT-28401947) is a Tin-Plated Copper Strand (CU/PVC) electrical wire, which is the flexible type (like Fanar) but boasts high-quality insulation from Sharqia Cables, making it safe for internal connections in rectifier equipment and motor starters. It is the most balanced option between cost and safety for most home and office applications in Riyadh, Jeddah, and Dammam.

Quick Guide: Where is a 6mm Wire Coil Used?

A 6mm wire coil is used in applications requiring strong electrical flow without voltage drop. Real-world examples from our projects in Saudi Arabia include:

Main connections from the meter to the distribution board (Main Distribution Board).
Connecting high-consumption devices such as central air conditioning units (Chillers) and electric stoves.
Installation inside control panels and heavy-duty industrial sockets.

We always recommend consulting a specialist before installation to ensure the electrical load does not exceed the wire's capacity, ensuring a long lifespan for the electrical system and protecting property from accidents.
