Functions

Protective earth conductor PE – green/yellow colour intended for clear identification of the grounding circuit
Electrical panels and control cabinets installation – suitable for internal wiring, terminals, grounding busbars and automation components
Fixed electrical installation – used in power distribution and lighting systems
Increased fire safety – halogen-free insulation reduces the emission of smoke, toxic and acidic gases
Easy installation – flexible Class 5 stranded copper conductor is easier to route and connect in confined spaces
Reliable electrical conductivity – copper conductor ensures stable and high-quality contact
Resistance to temporary high temperatures – withstands temperatures up to +160 °C during a short circuit

Applications

For household users: This wire may be useful for electrical installation work in houses, garages, utility buildings or technical rooms. Due to its green/yellow colour, it is most commonly used for grounding connections where a reliable protective conductor is required. Suitable for grounding circuits, electrical panel connections, distribution boxes, garage and utility room installations, lighting and power distribution systems.

For electricians: The H07Z1-K 6 mm² wire is a practical choice when a flexible, reliable and clearly identifiable PE conductor is required. Its flexible stranded construction allows faster installation, especially in electrical panels and cabinets where space is limited.

For engineers/designers: When designing electrical systems, this wire is relevant wherever halogen-free cables are required to reduce smoke and toxic gas emissions during a fire. This is important in public, commercial, industrial and other buildings with higher safety requirements.

Advantages

Halogen-free insulation – reduces toxic and acidic gas emissions during fire
Lower smoke density – important for evacuation and equipment protection
Copper conductor – good electrical conductivity and reliable contact
Flexible Class 5 conductor – easy installation in electrical panels and cabinets
Green/yellow colour – clear identification of the protective earth conductor

Disadvantages

Single-core wire – not suitable where a multicore cable with several insulated conductors is required
Not suitable for direct burial in the ground without additional protection

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the H07Z1-K 6 mm² green/yellow wire used for?

This wire is most commonly used as a PE protective earth conductor in electrical installations, electrical panels, control cabinets, distribution systems and lighting installations.

What does halogen-free mean?

A halogen-free wire means that its insulation releases less toxic, acidic gases and smoke during a fire. This is particularly important in buildings where increased human safety and equipment protection are required.

Can this wire be used in an electrical panel?

Yes, the H07Z1-K 6 mm² wire is highly suitable for electrical panels, automation cabinets and control cabinets. The flexible stranded copper conductor simplifies installation and connection to terminals, grounding busbars and other components.

Is this wire suitable for grounding?

Yes. The green/yellow insulation colour indicates that the wire is intended for PE protective grounding. The 6 mm² cross-section is often used for larger grounding connections; however, suitability for a specific installation should be assessed according to the project requirements and applicable electrical installation standards.
