Setup, Compatibility & Care
Proper installation involves ensuring the wire is housed within electrical installation pipes or similar closed systems, either on or underneath plaster. When stripping the PVC insulation for termination, use a professional-grade wire stripper set to the correct gauge to avoid nicking the fine copper strands. For long-term maintenance, avoid exposure to chemicals that degrade PVC and ensure that connections are kept dry. Because the wire is sensitive to temperature extremes while flexing (5 °C to 70 °C), perform any necessary mechanical routing or bending at ambient temperatures within this range to prevent insulation stress.
