Manufacture of wiring and wiring devices

NACE v2.1 Code: C27.3

About manufacture of wiring and wiring devices

NACE code 27.3 covers the manufacture of wiring and wiring devices, a critical component of modern electrical and electronic systems. This industry plays a vital role in the broader manufacturing sector, providing essential products and components that enable the functioning of a wide range of industries, from construction and transportation to telecommunications and renewable energy.

Production process

The manufacture of wiring and wiring devices typically involves a series of specialized processes, including wire drawing, insulation coating, and cable assembly. Manufacturers use advanced machinery and techniques to ensure the consistent quality and reliability of their products, which must meet stringent safety and performance standards.

Production inputs

The main inputs required for this industry include copper, aluminum, and other conductive metals, as well as various insulating materials such as plastic, rubber, and ceramics. Manufacturers also rely on specialized machinery and equipment, including wire-drawing machines, extruders, and cable-making machines, to facilitate the production process.

Production outputs

The primary outputs of the wiring and wiring devices industry include electrical cables, wires, cords, and a variety of other wiring products used in a wide range of applications. These outputs are often consumed by other NACE codes, such as 27.1 Manufacture of electronic components and boards, 27.2 Manufacture of computers and peripheral equipment, and 43.2 Electrical, plumbing and other construction installation activities.
