What gauge does this wire correspond to in Indian sq-mm sizing?

This Fermerry wire is rated in AWG as printed on the jacket. Common equivalents are 14 AWG ≈ 2.5 mm², 12 AWG ≈ 4 mm², and 10 AWG ≈ 6 mm². Match the AWG figure to the square-mm size your circuit and breaker require before installing for safe and compliant use in India.

Is this wire suitable for 230V Indian household wiring?

The Fermerry wire carries a 600V rating and silicone insulation, which comfortably covers 230V single-phase use. Confirm the insulation type and printed ratings suit your specific conduit or in-wall application and always follow local Indian electrical codes. Installation should be done by a qualified electrician.

How to use the Fermerry 16 AWG stranded wire kit?

Select the desired color and length of 16 AWG silicone wire from the 5ft spools. Strip the silicone insulation carefully using appropriate tools. Connect the tinned copper conductors to your components, such as LED lights or RC batteries. Use the included heat shrink tubing for insulation and wire ties for organization. Ensure connections are secure and rated for the voltage and current.

What are the benefits of silicone wire over standard PVC wire?

Silicone wire, like this Fermerry 16 AWG kit, offers superior flexibility and a higher temperature resistance (up to 200°C) compared to standard PVC insulation. This makes it ideal for applications in hot Indian environments or near heat-generating components, ensuring greater durability and safety. The tinned copper conductors also provide better conductivity and corrosion resistance.

Can I use this wire for mains power in India?

This Fermerry 16 AWG wire is rated for 600V and 19A, making it suitable for low-voltage DC applications like RC cars, LED lighting, and internal wiring of electrical equipment. It is not intended for direct connection to Indian mains power supply (230V AC) for household circuits, which typically require thicker gauge wires and specific insulation types compliant with Indian electrical codes.

How does the 16 AWG gauge compare to Indian wire standards?

The 16 AWG gauge is approximately 1.31 mm² in cross-sectional area. For Indian wiring, this is generally suitable for low-voltage electronics and signal applications. For mains power circuits, thicker gauges like 14 AWG (approx. 2.5 mm²) or 12 AWG (approx. 4 mm²) are typically required, depending on the load and local regulations.

Why choose this product

Superior Flexibility and Heat Resistance for Indian Conditions

This Fermerry silicone wire is engineered for demanding environments. Its 252-strand tinned copper core and silicone insulation make it exceptionally flexible and resistant to temperatures up to 200°C. This is vital for Indian climates where ambient temperatures can be high, and electrical components may generate significant heat. Unlike some local wires that might use less heat-tolerant PVC, this silicone wire maintains integrity and performance, ensuring reliable connections in applications like LED lighting, RC vehicles, and electrical equipment.

Ideal for Hobbyists and Professionals Requiring Color-Coded Circuits

This kit is perfect for anyone building or repairing electronics, from hobbyists working on RC cars to professionals setting up LED lighting systems. The six distinct colors (black, red, blue, white, green, yellow) allow for clear circuit identification, preventing wiring errors and simplifying troubleshooting. While basic local wires might come in fewer colors or only single spools, this Fermerry set provides a comprehensive solution with 30ft of wire, plus essential accessories like heat shrink tubing and wire ties, making it a practical choice for organized and efficient project completion.

How to use

Choose the desired color of 16 AWG silicone wire from the Fermerry spools. Select the length needed for your specific connection, ensuring it's sufficient for the project without excessive slack. — Select Wire and Color
Carefully strip about 5-10mm of the silicone insulation from the wire end using a wire stripper. Twist the exposed tinned copper strands together firmly and connect to your component terminals (e.g., LED, battery connector, PCB). — Strip Insulation and Connect
Slide a piece of the appropriate size heat shrink tubing over the wire before making the connection. After soldering or crimping, slide the tubing over the exposed connection and apply heat (e.g., with a heat gun) to shrink it, creating a secure, insulated joint. Use wire ties to manage and organize multiple wires. — Insulate and Secure Connections
