ELEKTRA VCD10 and VCD17 Heating Cables Installation 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.

It specifies that cables should not be cut, shortened (except the power supply conductor), or stretched excessively.
