Description
Product Overview
The RR Kabel Superex-FR 1.5 sq mm Blue Copper House Wire is engineered for safe and efficient performance in everyday electrical installations across Indian homes, offices, and commercial establishments. Supplied in a 200-metre coil, this wire is built around a high-purity electrolytic copper conductor that delivers superior conductivity, reduced heat generation, and long-term reliability. The FR PVC insulation is formulated to be flame retardant, meaning it resists the spread of fire in the event of an electrical fault — a critical safety feature for enclosed wiring in walls, conduits, and ceiling spaces.
At 1.5 sq mm conductor cross-section, this wire is the standard choice for low to medium load circuits in Indian buildings, particularly for lighting points, ceiling fans, exhaust fans, and 5A socket outlets. The blue colour coding makes it easy to identify during installation and maintenance, serving as the Phase B conductor in three-phase systems or as an alternate phase wire in single-phase residential wiring. Rated at 1100 volts and fully compliant with IS 694:2010, the Superex-FR series from RR Kabel is an ISI-marked product trusted by electricians and contractors across India.

Applications
- Ceiling Fan Wiring: Ideal for fan circuits in bedrooms, living rooms, and halls where load is typically within the 1.5 sq mm capacity range.
- Tube Light and LED Batten Circuits: Suitable for lighting branch circuits in homes, offices, corridors, and retail shops.
- 5A Socket Outlets: Recommended for wiring 5-ampere socket points used for phone chargers, table lamps, and small appliances.
- Exhaust Fan Wiring: Perfect for exhaust fan circuits in kitchens, bathrooms, and utility areas.
- General Lighting Circuits: Used for sub-circuit wiring from distribution boards to lighting points in residential and commercial buildings.
- Office and Shop Wiring: Commonly used in commercial fit-outs for light fixtures, signage circuits, and low-load power points.
- Phase B Identification in Three-Phase Systems: Used as the designated blue conductor for the second phase (B-phase) in three-phase industrial and commercial wiring layouts.
- Conduit and Surface Wiring Installations: Suitable for both concealed conduit wiring and surface-mounted casing-capping installations as per IS 732 guidelines.
Why Choose RR Kabel Superex-FR?
- Flame Retardant Safety: The FR PVC insulation meets the flame retardancy requirements of IS 694:2010, limiting fire propagation and reducing risk in concealed wiring applications.
- High-Purity Copper Conductor: Made from 99.97{21d06cf633e1d74c16ec73ab43c3358f6d2908066060866fd407f242af8b6688} electrolytic grade copper for excellent electrical conductivity, lower resistance, and reduced heat buildup during operation.
- ISI Marked and IS 694:2010 Compliant: Every coil carries the Bureau of Indian Standards ISI mark, assuring buyers of consistent quality, dimensional accuracy, and safety compliance.
- Colour-Coded for Safe Installation: The blue insulation adheres to Indian wiring colour conventions, helping electricians and inspectors identify conductors quickly and accurately, reducing the risk of wiring errors.
Colour Code Guide
In Indian electrical wiring practice, the colour blue is assigned to the Phase B conductor in three-phase systems, as recommended under IS 375 and general industry conventions followed across India. In single-phase residential wiring, blue may also be used as an alternate phase conductor where the primary phase is identified by red or brown. Using the correct colour code is essential for safe maintenance, fault identification, and compliance with inspection requirements under the National Electrical Code (NEC) India. Always ensure that blue conductors are clearly labelled at termination points to avoid confusion during future maintenance or rewiring work.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is the RR Kabel Superex-FR 1.5 sq mm wire used for?
The RR Kabel Superex-FR 1.5 sq mm wire is designed for light to medium load electrical circuits in residential, commercial, and retail installations. Common applications include ceiling fan wiring, tube light and LED lighting circuits, exhaust fan connections, and 5A socket outlets. It is one of the most widely used wire sizes in Indian homes and offices for sub-circuit wiring from distribution boards to individual load points.
What does the blue colour of this wire indicate in Indian electrical wiring?
In Indian electrical wiring practice, the colour blue is used to identify the Phase B conductor in three-phase electrical systems, following IS 375 colour coding conventions. In single-phase installations, blue may also be used as an alternate phase conductor alongside red or brown. Correct colour identification is important for safe installation, maintenance, and compliance with electrical inspection standards under the National Electrical Code (NEC) India.
What does FR (Flame Retardant) mean and why is it important for house wiring?
FR stands for Flame Retardant, which means the PVC insulation used on this wire is specially compounded to resist the spread of flame in the event of an electrical fault or short circuit. This is particularly critical in concealed wiring installed inside walls, conduits, and ceiling voids where heat buildup can go undetected. The FR rating in the RR Kabel Superex-FR series meets the requirements specified under IS 694:2010, providing an additional layer of fire safety for building occupants.
Is the RR Kabel Superex-FR 1.5 sq mm wire compliant with Indian standards?
Yes, the RR Kabel Superex-FR 1.5 sq mm wire is fully compliant with IS 694:2010, which is the Bureau of Indian Standards specification for PVC insulated cables and wires for electrical installations. The product carries the ISI mark, confirming it has been tested and certified for conductor dimensions, insulation thickness, voltage rating (1100V), and flame retardancy. This compliance makes it acceptable for use in all types of building wiring projects inspected by electrical authorities across India.
