Product description
This stranded copper wire (CU/PVC) from Riyadh Cables is engineered for reliable performance in the UAE's demanding electrical installations. Manufactured to international standards (SSA 1320, IEC 60227 & BS 6004), it ensures safety and durability for both residential and commercial projects across Dubai, Abu Dhabi, and Sharjah.
The PVC insulation provides excellent protection against electric leakage, physical shocks, abrasion, and moisture — crucial for the humid coastal climate of the Emirates. It also shields the conductor from harmful UV rays, extending the wire's lifespan in exposed applications.
Designed for fixed internal installations, this wire is suitable for power circuits, lighting systems, building wiring, and internal equipment connections rated up to 1000 V AC and 750 V DC to earth. Its stranded construction offers flexibility, making it easy to install in tight spaces and conduit runs commonly found in UAE construction projects.
