Product Description
BW/0.5/WHT bell wire is a 0.5mm CCA conductor cable with PVC insulation, supplied on a 100m reel, in white.
This is a low-voltage signal cable, not a data or power cable for cameras — it's specified for doorbells, alarm circuits and basic signal wiring in residential and light commercial installs.

Where it fits on a job
Use it for bell circuits, alarm signalling and other basic low-voltage runs where a lightweight, easy-to-route cable is needed. It is not described as a data cable, so it should not be specified for network camera runs or PoE links — for those, a dedicated Cat cable rated for the application is the correct choice.
CCA vs solid copper
CCA conductors are lighter and cheaper than solid copper but carry lower conductivity for a given gauge, which is a normal trade-off for short, low-current signal runs like bells and alarms rather than long power feeds.
The 100m reel format suits multi-drop installs where several bell or alarm points need wiring from a single length, reducing joins on the run.
