Type FCC cable, or the Flexible Cable for Communications, is specifically designed for installations under plaster. These cables are built to withstand the conditions commonly found in plastered environments, offering durability and the ability to handle certain environmental factors. This makes them suitable for use in walls or ceilings where plaster is applied, as they can effectively support the necessary electrical or communication functions without compromising the integrity of the surrounding materials.

While cables may also be used under tiles, carpet squares, or concrete, these installations often require different cable ratings and specifications tailored to the respective environments. For instance, tiles often provide a more rigid flooring surface, while carpet squares allow for ease of electrical accessibility, differing significantly from the static nature of plastered applications, which require cables that can flexibly adapt to the mixed media associated with such installations.
