About this manual

This manual provides installation instructions for the ELEKTRA VCD10 (10 W/m) and VCD17 (17 W/m) heating cables. These cables are primarily designed for use with tile or natural stone floors but can also be used with fitted carpets, vinyl flooring, parquet, and laminate, provided the floor covering is suitable for electric underfloor heating.

The document details the installation process on slab floors or concrete subfloors using thermal insulation and anhydrite or cement screed. It specifies that cables should not be cut, shortened (except the power supply conductor), or stretched excessively. The manual also outlines minimum spacing requirements between cables based on floor type and screed characteristics.
