Quick answer: We could not find a reliable 2026-dated price for electrical cable coils in Nigeria. Undated online store listings show a 100m coil of 2.5mm single-core copper wire at roughly ₦53,000–₦66,000.

We could not confirm a current October 2026 price for this item from a reliable dated source, so we are not showing a figure. For a firm price, ask suppliers for a quote.

Why prices differ

Copper prices and the naira exchange rate drive cable costs, because copper is the main input.

Brand and authenticity: original Nigerchin, Coleman or Cutix costs more than 'second type' or fake copies.

Coil length: some coils are 100 yards (about 91m), not 100 metres, so check before comparing prices.

Size: each step up (1.5mm, 2.5mm, 4mm, 6mm) uses more copper and costs more.

Frequently asked questions

How much is a coil of 2.5mm cable?

We could not verify a 2026 market price. Undated online store listings show a 100m coil of 2.5mm single-core copper (Nigerchin or Cutix) at about ₦53,000–₦66,000. Confirm with a dealer before buying.

Is a 100-yard coil the same as 100 metres?

No. 100 yards is about 91 metres, so a 100-yard coil has about 9% less cable. Some cheaper 'second type' coils are sold in yards.

How can I avoid fake cables?

Buy from authorised distributors, check the brand markings and the coil length, and be careful of prices far below other dealers' prices. Fake cables often use thinner or copper-coated aluminium wire.
