Electricity labelling - electricity, telecom & data

Electrical labelling is an important part of any electrical installation. It helps to increase safety, efficiency and maintenance. Labelling helps increase safety by enabling people to identify dangerous electrical components and systems. This can help prevent accidents, such as electrocution and fire.

The right methods for electricity labelling

The electrical industry has special requirements for labelling in installations, such as on appliances and equipment. We supply electrical labelling adapted to current standards and regulations.

When it comes to labelling wires, cables and electrical installations, turn to us for the right product for every job. If you need help with electrical labelling, contact us and we will help you find the right solution!

Shrink tubing

Insulate your wires and protect them from abrasion with a shrink tube. The diameter of this special type of plastic tube shrinks when heated (hence the name), with the application of heat most easily done with a hot air gun.

What is a shrink tube?

Shrink tubing is divided into shrink ratios, i.e. the maximum amount the diameter of the tubing can shrink when heat is applied. The greater the shrink ratio, the larger the variety of applications it can mould around.

The shrink tubes that are glued provide extra sealing. We offer both thin-walled and thick-walled shrink tubing, from high-quality brands.

Example of effective electricity labelling

Here are some examples of how electricity labelling can be used in electricity, telecommunications and data:

  • El: Wire labelling can be used to identify what current is carried through a wire, what voltage applies and what amperage is allowed. Appliance labelling can be used to identify the type of appliance, the required current and the applicable voltage. System labelling can be used to identify different electrical systems and components within a larger system, such as an industrial estate or a data centre.
  • Tele: Line labelling can be used to identify the type of cable, the frequency used and the type of signal transmitted. Device labelling can be used to identify the type of device, the type of signal used and the ports available. System labelling can be used to identify different telecommunication systems and components within a larger system, such as a corporate network or a communication network.
  • Data: Wire labelling can be used to identify the type of cable, the speed used and the type of data transmitted. Device labelling can be used to identify what type of device it is, what type of data is used and what ports are available. System labelling can be used to identify different computer systems and components within a larger system, such as a corporate network or data centre.

Electricity labelling in Sweden

In Sweden, electricity labelling is regulated by Regulations of the National Electrical Safety Board. These regulations set out requirements on how electrical labelling should be carried out to ensure that it is clear, legible and durable.

Electricity labelling in Europe

In Europe, electrical labelling is regulated by standard EN 60445. This standard sets out requirements on how electrical labelling should be carried out to ensure that it is clear, legible and durable.
