Hi, With regard to your query, It is not clear whether the materials are for replacement with the old ones already installed earlier or it is being installed for the first time, If it is for replacement it can be treated as repairs and maintenance and you can claim it as an expense, or if it is the other way round you could capitalize the same and depreciate over the useful life.

Sir this is not for replacement this is newly created for the installation of 5 split Ac's a separate line for Ac's connecting to main power line. Electrical wires can be capitalized ?
