Description
Product Overview
The RR Kabel Superex-FR 1.5 sq mm Green House Wire is engineered for one of the most critical roles in any electrical installation — safety earthing. Conforming to IS 694:2010 and the earthing requirements outlined under IS 3043, this single-core wire carries the universally recognised green colour designation that identifies it as an earth conductor. Whether you are wiring a new home, fitting out a commercial office, or upgrading an existing shop installation, this wire ensures that all metal enclosures, switch boxes, distribution boards, and appliance bodies are reliably bonded to earth, providing essential protection against electric shock and equipment damage.
Constructed with a high-purity electrolytic copper conductor and sheathed in Flame Retardant PVC insulation, the Superex-FR series is built to perform consistently across India’s demanding climate conditions — from high-humidity coastal regions to the dry heat of northern plains. The FR insulation does not propagate flame in the event of a fault, significantly reducing the risk of fire spread within concealed conduit or open surface wiring. The 90-metre coil length makes it a practical choice for full-room or full-floor earthing runs without unnecessary joints, keeping your installation neat, compliant, and professional.

Why Choose RR Kabel Superex-FR?
- Flame Retardant Safety: The FR PVC insulation is formulated to self-extinguish and resist flame propagation, minimising fire risk in concealed conduit wiring, false ceilings, and surface installations.
- ISI Certified Quality: Manufactured under IS 694:2010 with ISI certification, every metre of Superex-FR wire meets the Bureau of Indian Standards requirements for conductor resistance, insulation thickness, and dielectric strength.
- High-Purity Copper Conductor: RR Kabel uses electrolytic-grade copper that delivers low resistivity and excellent flexibility, ensuring consistent earth fault current flow and long service life without oxidation-related failures.
- Consistent Colour Coding: The vivid, fade-resistant green insulation maintains colour integrity throughout the wire’s life, ensuring easy identification during maintenance, inspection, and future renovation work — fully aligned with Indian wiring colour code conventions.
Colour Code Guide
In Indian electrical wiring practice, green is the designated colour for the Earth (Ground) conductor, as specified under IS 3043 (Code of Practice for Earthing) and widely followed under the National Electrical Code (NEC) India. The earth wire must never carry current under normal operating conditions — its sole purpose is to provide a low-impedance fault return path to earth, protecting people and equipment in the event of an insulation failure or live conductor contact. Using the correct green wire for all earthing runs is not merely good practice; it is a mandatory safety requirement that enables electricians, inspectors, and maintenance teams to immediately identify and verify earth connections without ambiguity. Never substitute a green wire for a phase or neutral conductor, and never use any other colour for your earthing circuits.

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 primarily used for lighting circuits, ceiling fan wiring, tube light circuits, 5A socket outlet circuits, and exhaust fan connections in homes, offices, and commercial shops. In green colour, it is specifically designated as an earth conductor for safety earthing runs that bond metal enclosures, switch boxes, and appliance bodies to earth. Its 1100V rating and IS 694:2010 compliance make it suitable for all standard single-phase wiring applications in Indian residential and light commercial buildings.
Why is the earth wire green in Indian electrical installations?
In Indian wiring practice, the green colour is universally designated for the Earth or Ground conductor as per IS 3043 (Code of Practice for Earthing) and the National Electrical Code India. This colour coding system allows electricians, inspectors, and maintenance personnel to instantly identify the protective earth conductor and distinguish it from phase (red/yellow/blue) and neutral (black) wires, preventing dangerous mis-connections. Using the correct green wire for all earthing circuits is a mandatory safety convention that must be strictly followed in every installation.
What does FR (Flame Retardant) mean in RR Kabel Superex-FR wire?
FR stands for Flame Retardant — a property of the PVC insulation compound used in Superex-FR wires that enables it to resist ignition and self-extinguish rather than propagate fire when exposed to a flame source. This is critically important in concealed conduit wiring, false ceiling installations, and multi-storey buildings where a burning wire could spread fire rapidly through hidden passages. RR Kabel’s FR PVC formulation meets the flame retardancy requirements specified under IS 694:2010, providing a significant safety advantage over standard non-FR wires.
Is RR Kabel Superex-FR 1.5 sq mm wire compliant with IS 694:2010?
Yes, the RR Kabel Superex-FR 1.5 sq mm wire is manufactured in strict compliance with IS 694:2010, the Bureau of Indian Standards specification for PVC insulated cables for working voltages up to and including 1100V. This standard governs critical parameters including minimum conductor cross-sectional area, copper conductor resistance, minimum insulation thickness, dielectric strength, and flame retardancy performance. The ISI mark on the product provides assurance that it has been independently tested and certified to meet all requirements of IS 694:2010, making it suitable for use in all Indian electrical installations.
