Description
Product Overview
The RR Kabel Superex-FR 4 sq mm Yellow Copper House Wire is engineered for high-load electrical circuits that demand both reliability and safety. With a current-carrying capacity suited to appliances drawing up to 25–27 amperes under standard installation conditions, this wire is the go-to choice for dedicated air conditioner circuits (up to 1.5 ton), geyser connections (up to 3 kW), and submersible pump wiring in residential and semi-commercial properties. The conductor is manufactured from high-conductivity electrolytic copper, ensuring minimal resistive losses and consistent performance over the wire’s service life.
The Superex-FR series features Flame Retardant (FR) PVC insulation that resists the spread of fire along the cable run — a critical safety attribute for concealed wiring within walls, conduits, and ceiling voids. The yellow colour plays a specific functional role in Indian electrical installations: it is widely used as an earth wire (alternate) or for phase identification in multi-circuit and industrial panel wiring, helping electricians and contractors maintain clear, safe, and code-compliant circuit segregation. The 90-metre coil length is thoughtfully sized for complete floor or wing wiring without unnecessary joints, reducing installation time on-site.

- Sub-Main Wiring in Residential Buildings: Connects the main distribution board to sub-distribution boards across floors or wings in apartments and bungalows.
- Earth Wiring (Alternate): Deployed as an earth conductor in installations where yellow is designated for earthing, in compliance with IS 3043 earthing practices.
- Industrial Panel and Multi-Circuit Identification: Used in electrical panels and control boards for phase identification and circuit segregation in light industrial settings.
- Garage and Utility Area Wiring: Suitable for dedicated circuits powering workshop machinery, compressors, and utility pumps.
Why Choose RR Kabel Superex-FR?
- Flame Retardant (FR) Safety: The FR PVC insulation is formulated to self-extinguish and retard flame propagation, significantly reducing fire risk in concealed and open wiring installations — a key safety requirement for modern Indian homes and commercial spaces.
- High-Purity Electrolytic Copper Conductor: RR Kabel uses 99.97{21d06cf633e1d74c16ec73ab43c3358f6d2908066060866fd407f242af8b6688} pure electrolytic copper, ensuring superior conductivity, lower heat generation, and a longer service life compared to inferior alternatives.
- ISI Mark and IS 694:2010 Compliance: Every coil carries the Bureau of Indian Standards (BIS) ISI mark, confirming that the wire has been independently tested and certified to meet IS 694:2010 — the mandatory Indian standard for PVC insulated cables for working voltages up to and including 1100V.
- Consistent Dimensional Accuracy: Precision manufacturing ensures uniform insulation thickness and conductor cross-section throughout the 90-metre coil, preventing hotspots and ensuring reliable performance across every metre of the run.
Colour Code Guide
In Indian electrical wiring practice, yellow is used in two primary roles. First, it serves as an alternate earth wire colour in installations where green or green-yellow is unavailable or where local practice designates yellow for earthing purposes, as referenced in IS 3043 (Code of Practice for Earthing). Second, yellow is commonly adopted for phase identification in three-phase multi-circuit wiring — particularly in industrial panels, distribution boards, and sub-main runs — to distinguish individual phases and maintain safe, traceable circuit layouts. Using the correct colour-coded wire ensures compliance with installation standards, simplifies future maintenance, and significantly reduces the risk of wiring errors during extensions or repairs.

Frequently Asked Questions
What loads and appliances is the RR Kabel 4 sq mm house wire suitable for?
The RR Kabel Superex-FR 4 sq mm copper wire is designed for high-load circuits including split air conditioners up to 1.5 ton, storage or instant geysers up to 3 kW, submersible pumps, microwave ovens, induction cooktops, and sub-main wiring within residential buildings. It is also appropriate for light industrial applications where a dedicated, high-current circuit of up to approximately 25–27 amperes is required. Always consult a licensed electrician to confirm the correct wire size based on your actual load, installation method, and ambient temperature.
What does the yellow colour signify in Indian house wiring?
In Indian electrical installations, yellow-coloured wire is used either as an alternate earth conductor — particularly where green or green-yellow striped wire is not available — or for phase identification in multi-circuit and three-phase wiring systems, including distribution boards and industrial panels. Following the correct colour code as guided by IS 3043 (Earthing) and general Indian wiring practice helps electricians and inspectors quickly identify circuit functions, reduces wiring errors, and improves overall installation safety. It is important to confirm the designated colour convention with your project’s electrical drawings before installation.
What does FR (Flame Retardant) mean and why is it important for house wiring?
FR stands for Flame Retardant — a property of the PVC insulation that causes it to resist the spread of fire along the cable and self-extinguish once the ignition source is removed. This is critically important for concealed wiring within walls, conduit runs, and ceiling voids, where a wire fault could otherwise allow fire to travel undetected through the building structure. RR Kabel Superex-FR wires are manufactured with FR-grade PVC that meets the flame retardancy requirements specified under IS 694:2010, making them a safer choice for modern residential and commercial electrical installations.
Is the RR Kabel Superex-FR wire certified to IS 694:2010?
Yes, the RR Kabel Superex-FR 4 sq mm wire is fully compliant with IS 694:2010, the Bureau of Indian Standards specification for PVC insulated cables for working voltages up to and including 1100V, and carries the mandatory ISI mark issued by BIS. This certification confirms that the wire has undergone independent third-party testing for conductor resistance, insulation integrity, voltage withstand, and flame retardancy. Purchasing an ISI-marked wire is not only a quality assurance measure but is also a regulatory requirement for electrical installations in India under the National Electrical Code (NEC India) and applicable state building codes.
