BIS CERTIFICATION FOR WROUGHT ALUMINIUM WIRE FOR ELECTRICAL PURPOSES IS 2067:1975

According to the directives outlined in IS 2067:1975, BIS certification is compulsory for wrought aluminum wire utilized in electrical applications. Wrought aluminum wire is distinguished by its shape, size, and properties achieved through mechanical processes like rolling, drawing, or extrusion. Renowned for its lightweight design, exceptional electrical conductivity, resistance to corrosion, and recyclability, this material finds widespread use in diverse applications such as power transmission lines, building wiring, cable manufacturing, and various electrical components. Its adaptability is crucial for driving modern technologies forward and facilitating efficient power transmission within specified weight and budgetary constraints.

IS 2067:1975 outlines the criteria for wrought aluminum wire designed for electrical applications, detailing manufacturing specifications, chemical compositions, physical attributes, and testing procedures. According to this standard, all wrought aluminum wires used for electrical purposes must be included in the ISI certification scheme to guarantee compliance with stringent quality and safety regulations.

Key Highlights

Applicable Indian Standard	IS 2067:1975
Applicable Certification Scheme	Product Certification Scheme (ISI Mark Scheme) Scheme 1 - Schedule 2
Compliance Requirement	Mandatory
QCO Link	Quality Control Order
Scope as per Standard	This standard addresses the specifications for aluminum wire utilized in electrical conductors, detailing the chemical composition, mechanical characteristics, electrical resistivity, and additional general requirements.

TESTS

The following are the major tests for Wrought Aluminium Wire for Electrical Purposes:

Chemical Composition
Condition
Freedom from defects
Electrical Resistivity
Mechanical properties (Tensile Strength, Elongation, Wrapping)
Joints
Tolerances (on size)

The standard offers detailed information on the chemical composition, mechanical features, electrical resistivity, and other essential parameters relevant to aluminum wires utilized as electrical conductors.

Crucially, lacking the ISI Mark renders the product ineligible for lawful marketing, importation, or exportation to the Indian consumer market. This underscores the pivotal role of certification in upholding product quality and adhering to established standards.

BIS Certification Process

Acquiring a BIS license entails a detailed evaluation of manufacturing infrastructure, quality control capabilities, testing facilities, and production processes. This thorough assessment guarantees that the products not only meet regulatory standards but also ensure safety and reliability for consumers.
