HARS10203@GMAIL.COM
•It made waterproof by
drooping it into
waterproof compound
•It is useful for service
connection

20. Lead covered wire
HARS10203@GMAIL.COM
•No effect of moisture on it
•It used where there is moisture presence.

21. Mineral insulated copper covered:
HARS10203@GMAIL.COM
•Coating of magnesium oxide is provided.
•Less effect of temperature.
•Copper sheath is provided.
•It is used in mines, factory, refinery, furnace,
boiler, rolling, mill est.

22. Poly Vinyl Chloride wire:
HARS10203@GMAIL.COM

•Life is long
•Protect against flame
•Protect against oil, alkali
•PVC wire is widely used

23. General rules for domestic
wiring:
Chapter no. : 3

24. 1. General rules of domestic wiring.
1. Cut-out on consumer’s premises.
2. Meters, maximum demand indicators and other
apparatus on consumer Premises.
3. Weatherproof wire for service connection with
sufficient current carrying capacity.
6. All conductor/wire should be sage in all term of
voltage rating with proper insulation.
HARS10203@GMAIL.COM

25. 7. Ever line or phase should be protected by suitable
ratings fuse.
8. In metal conduit wiring metal conduit pipe
continuously earthed.
9. Each load point an appliances should be a independent
control switch.
10. In any building. the wiring installation, there must
be separate sub circuits for light/fan/3 pin socket load
and for 3 pin socket 15 Amp. power load.

26. 11. In any light/fan and the number of load points
connected in one sub circuit should be less than
10(ten).
13. In any power sub circuit, the maximum should not
be more than 3000 watts and the number of power
point should be up to two only.
14.The rating of fuse in any circuit should not be less
than half the capacity of the lowest size cable. In any
sub-circuit the fuse rating should not be more than 5
amp.

27. 15. The earthed terminals of all 3 pin sockets outlets and
plugs should be permanently connected to the earth wire.
.
16. Sufficient number of 3 pin socket outlets should be
provided at suitable places in all rooms of the building
17. In the bath rooms. the 3 pin socket should be at a
height of not less than 1.5 m.
18. All ceiling fans are to be hung 2.75 m above the
floor level refer IS :4648 -1968.

28. 19. In the domestic wiring earth wire should be of
14 SWG GI for single phase supply and for 3 phase
supply system earth wire must be of 8 SwG GI.
20. If the load on any domestic wiring installation
exceeds 6.0 kw. then 3 415 v. 50 Hz, 4 wire supply
should be used. The load on 3 phases should be
properly balanced.
21. when the covered area in the building complex is
more than 5000 m2 and the total load is more than
1000kva. The separate sub station is required to be
installed.
