The Elektra VCD Cable is installed in rooms which are under construction and the floor is not finished. It generally serves as primary heating and is the only source of heat in the room. When it serves as a supplementary heating source ("The Warm Floor Effect"), a primary heating system is required. The Cable is installed on top of a insulation using either a staple or a fixing strap to secure the cable until the screed is laid.
The fixing strips for the cable can be found here
