3/29 Single-Core PVC House Wire — 90 Gaz Coil

The 3/29 Wire 90-Gaz Coil is a flexible single-core insulated house wire supplied in red, black, blue and yellow colour options. The traditional 3/29 size denotes three conductor strands, each approximately 0.029 inch in diameter. A 90-Gaz coil equals 90 yards, approximately 82.3 metres or 270 feet.

Technical Specifications

Important Length Clarification

This listing is for 90 Gaz, meaning 90 yards:

• 90 yards × 0.9144 = 82.296 metres
• 90 yards × 3 = 270 feet

Do not publish this product as a 90-metre coil unless the physical coil, supplier invoice or manufacturer documentation confirms 90 metres. A 90-metre coil is approximately 98.4 yards and is longer than a 90-Gaz coil.

Size Clarification

The traditional code 3/29 means three conductor strands, each approximately 0.029 inch in diameter. The calculated copper area from the strand dimensions is approximately 1.278mm². Pakistani sellers commonly place this product in the 1.5mm² trade class, but 3/.029 inch is an imperial strand specification and is not exactly equal to a metric 1.5mm² conductor.

Recommended Applications

• Lighting circuits
• Ceiling-fan points
• Switch drops and control wiring
• Low-load fixed house wiring
• Conduit and trunking installations
• General residential or commercial wiring selected by a qualified electrician

Final application, breaker size, permissible load and installation method must be selected by a qualified electrician after verifying the conductor material, full gauge, insulation, voltage rating, ambient temperature and cable-routing conditions.

Detailed Product Description

The 3/29 Wire 90-Gaz Coil is a commonly used single-core insulated wire format for residential and commercial electrical work in Pakistan. Its traditional 3/.029 construction uses three strands, each approximately 0.029 inch in diameter, giving a calculated conductor cross-section of about 1.278mm².

The wire is supplied in a compact coil that is easy to handle during conduit, trunking and switchboard work. Red, black, blue and yellow colour options allow installers to select colours according to their project plan and applicable wiring practices.

This product is specifically identified as a 90-Gaz coil, equal to 90 yards or approximately 82.3 metres. The actual conductor material, copper purity, insulation grade, voltage rating, current capacity, certification and exact measured length must be confirmed from the supplier or physical coil before publishing additional performance claims.

Colour Options

• Red: Commonly selected for phase/live identification, subject to local wiring practice
• Black: Commonly selected for neutral or other identification, subject to local wiring practice
• Blue: Used according to the project wiring and identification plan
• Yellow: Used according to the project wiring and identification plan

Wire colour alone must not be treated as proof of conductor function. Follow the approved wiring diagram and local electrical rules.

Verification Checklist Before Sale

• Confirm whether the conductor is pure copper, copper alloy or another material
• Measure one strand with a micrometer to confirm 0.029-inch diameter
• Confirm three-strand construction
• Confirm the coil is 90 yards / 270 feet
• Read and record the printed voltage rating
• Confirm the insulation material and flame-retardant claim, if any
• Confirm manufacturer, country of origin and applicable standard
• Confirm warranty and return policy

Package Contents

• 1 × 3/29 single-core wire coil
• Selected colour: Red, Black, Blue or Yellow
• Declared length: 90 Gaz / 90 yards

Packaging, ties and labelling may vary. Confirm the selected colour and measured length before dispatch.

Installation and Safety Notes

• Electrical installation must be completed by a qualified electrician.
• Do not select the breaker or load solely from the 3/29 trade name.
• Verify conductor material, real cross-section, insulation rating and coil markings before use.
• Apply appropriate derating for conduit fill, ambient temperature, grouping and installation method.
• Use suitable termination, earthing, protection and isolation equipment.
• Do not use for high-load appliances unless a qualified electrician confirms suitability.
• Replace any wire with damaged, cracked or cut insulation.
