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

This Haerkn wire is rated in AWG as printed on the jacket. 16 AWG is approximately equivalent to 1.31 mm² (or often rounded to 1.5 mm² for practical comparison). Ensure this gauge matches the current requirements and local Indian electrical codes for your specific installation before use.

Is this wire suitable for 230V Indian household wiring?

The Haerkn wire is rated for 600V, which comfortably covers India's standard 230V household supply. However, it is designed as a flexible lead wire for appliances and electronics, not for permanent in-wall house wiring. Always use a qualified electrician for any mains voltage connections and ensure compliance with local Indian electrical codes.
