Safety concerns of Class 5 conductors in India

Class of conductor refers to the flexibility requirement in application. Class 2 is used in cases where the installation is fixed and they are stranded conductors. Class 5 refers to flexible conductor. The core of class 5 conductor has more number of thin wires than class 2 to make it more flexible. As the Class 5 conductors are having a higher resistance, they consume more power. So heat loss in conductor is also similar.
