Cable, Wire and Device Marking for Control Panels
Murrplastik label sleeves, wire markers, snap-in label plates and cable labels identify every wire, terminal and device in a control panel or machine. Labels can be printed on plotter, inkjet or laser devices. Our team helps you match the marking system to your terminals and wire sizes.
Unmarked or hand-written wiring turns every fault-finding job into a hunt. Labels that fall off, fade or don't fit the terminal make the panel drawings useless on the shop floor.
Types of cable & wire marking systems
Terminal and device label plates
Halogen-free snap-in label plates, mounted individually or in strips, sized for terminals from Phoenix, Siemens, Wago, Beckhoff, ABB Entrelec and Schneider, and for devices from Escha, IFM, Lumberg, Murrelektronik, Pepperl + Fuchs and Turck.
Models: Type KPX · Type WGO · Type KET · Type KS
Contactor name plates
Snap-in label plates with a large printable area for project and component reference on contactors, relays and terminal blocks, in fire classification V0 for -40 °C to 130 °C.
Models: Type ABB · Type KAB · Type KPF · Type KES
Wire marking sleeves and markers
Transparent label sleeves that hold KS labels on wires from 0.22 to 120 mm², a halogen-free EVA version, sleeves sold by the meter, and KDE plates pushed directly onto single wires from 0.5 to 4 mm².
Models: Label sleeves KT (standard sleeve) · KTH label sleeves (halogen-free) · Marker Sleeves KT (sold by the meter) · Type KDE
Cable labels and holders
Labels and holders fixed to cables, cords and conduits with cable ties, for single-line or multi-line inscription and later marking of cables already installed.
Models: Type KSO · Type KSM · Type KSD · Type KM
Equipment label holders
Screw-mounted holders with a transparent cover for labelling enclosures, assemblies and components that have no labelling slot of their own.
Models: Type BT
What to specify
| Parameter | What to check |
|---|---|
| What you are marking | Wires, cables and conduits take sleeves or cable-tie labels; terminals and devices take snap-in plates; enclosures and assemblies take label holders. |
| Terminal or device make | Snap-in plates are made to fit specific terminal and device ranges. Tell us the make and series of your terminal blocks. |
| Wire cross-section | Sleeves and markers cover set ranges, e.g. 0.22 to 120 mm² for KT label sleeves and 0.5 to 4 mm² for KDE plates. |
| Printing method | Check that the label material suits your printer: plotter, inkjet or laser. |
| Halogen-free requirement | Specify halogen-free material where the project calls for it, e.g. KTH sleeves (EVA) instead of standard PVC sleeves. |
| Temperature and environment | The KPX, WGO, KET and KS plates are rated -40 °C to 130 °C; PVC sleeves -40 °C to 60 °C. Choose accordingly for hot cabinets. |

Common questions
Which label fits my terminal blocks?
Snap-in plates are matched to terminal makes: KPX for Phoenix, ABB Entrelec, Murrelektronik, Siemens and Wago terminals, WGO for Wago, Beckhoff and ABB Entrelec, and KET for ABB, ABB Entrelec and Schneider. Tell us the terminal series and we'll confirm the exact plate.
How are wires marked with label sleeves?
A transparent sleeve slides over the wire and holds a printed label, which stays readable and protected. KT sleeves cover wire cross-sections from 0.22 to 120 mm²; for small wires from 0.5 to 4 mm² the KDE plates push directly onto the wire.
Do you have halogen-free marking?
Yes. The KTH label sleeves are halogen-free EVA, and the KS, KSO, KSM, KPX, WGO and KET label plates are halogen-free as well.
Can I mark cables that are already installed?
Yes. Cable labels such as the KSM and KSD, and the KM label holder, are fixed with cable ties, so they can be added without disconnecting the cable.
What printers can I use for the labels?
Depending on the label type, Murrplastik labels are printed on plotter, inkjet or laser devices. Let us know the printer you have and we'll match the label material.
