Electrical Wire, Switches, Fans & Lighting - Buy Finolex, Anchor & Atomberg Online

Electrical wire is where every circuit starts, and everything downstream - switches, protection, fans, lighting - depends on it being sized and installed correctly. At Fixxly, this department covers electrical wire from Finolex, Polycab and Goldmedal, switches and sockets from Anchor by Panasonic and Goldmedal, Schneider Electric MCBs and RCCBs, and the ceiling fan price range from Atomberg, Crompton and Polycab alongside kitchen exhaust fan and cooking exhaust fan options and Philips and Panasonic lighting. This guide covers each part of the electrical system and how to size it correctly.

Electrical wire and wires electricity ratings

Electrical wire is rated by cross-sectional area in square millimetres, and matching the right wire type and size to each circuit's load is the single most important safety decision in any wiring job. Finolex, Polycab and Goldmedal all stock FR and FRLS insulated household wire, and electrical wiring done correctly - with proper earthing and correctly rated protection - is what keeps a circuit safe for the life of the building.

Switches, sockets and protection

Anchor by Panasonic and Goldmedal cover switches and modular switch boards in every rating, while Schneider Electric MCBs and RCCBs protect each circuit from overload and earth leakage - two different hazards that both need covering in a properly protected home. Conduit, junction boxes and PVC fittings from Finolex and Anchor complete the wiring system.

Ceiling fan price and BLDC technology

Ceiling fan price spans conventional induction fans through to energy-saving BLDC models from Atomberg, Crompton and Polycab, with BLDC fans using less than half the electricity of a conventional fan for similar airflow. Kitchen exhaust fan and cooking exhaust fan options need a more powerful motor and grease-resistant construction than a standard bathroom exhaust fan, and bathroom vent fan models are sized to clear steam and moisture specifically.

Lighting from Philips and Panasonic

Downlights, panel lights, spotlights, LED bulbs and strip lights from Philips and Panasonic cover every room, with tri-colour switchable and rimless designs available across the range for flexible, modern lighting.

Sizing wire and protection correctly

• Lighting circuits: the thinnest common electrical wire, since lights draw relatively little current.
• Socket circuits: a thicker wire to carry higher, varied loads.
• Heavy appliances: a dedicated, thicker wire on its own circuit, protected by a correctly rated MCB.
• Every home: an RCCB for socket and wet-area circuits, since an MCB alone does not protect against shock.

Frequently asked questions

What size electrical wire do I need?

Wire size is chosen by the current the circuit will carry - thinner wire for lighting, thicker for socket circuits, and a heavier dedicated wire for high-load appliances like air conditioners and geysers.

Why does electrical wiring need an RCCB as well as an MCB?

An MCB protects the wire from overload and short circuit, while an RCCB protects people from earth leakage and electric shock - a properly protected home needs both, since neither substitutes for the other.

How is ceiling fan price affected by BLDC technology?

BLDC fans cost more upfront than conventional fans but use less than half the electricity for similar airflow, so the higher ceiling fan price is usually recovered within a year or two through lower running costs on a fan used many hours a day.

What is the difference between a kitchen exhaust fan and a bathroom exhaust fan?

A kitchen exhaust fan or cooking exhaust fan needs a more powerful motor and grease-resistant construction to handle smoke and grease, while a bathroom vent fan mainly needs to clear steam and moisture and can be lighter-duty.
