[short] HOOK UP WIRE UL 1061 Applications: The lead hook up wire is an electrical wire developed for use as appliance wirings, in motor engines, oils and coolant power lines, and transformers. The maximum temperature is 80°C for continuous use at 300V. If you are looking where to buy hook up wire as your electrical cable of choice, Nassau National Cable is among the leading lead wire suppliers with a wide hook up wire assortment. Also Known As: Hook up wire, lead wire cable, hook cable, lead cable, lead wire, stranded hookup wire, lead covered wire, electrode lead wires, electrical lead wire, high voltage lead wire, type ul. Standards: Temperature Range/Voltage Rating: UL 1061: 80°C/300V CSM AWM I A/B: 80°C/300V MIL-W-16878/1 Type B: 80°C/600V MIL-W-16878/2 Type C: 105°C/600V Industry Approvals: UL Standard 758 - Style 1061 UL AWM Style 1007 (80°C)/1569 (105°C) UL AWM Style 1061 (80°C) MIL-W-16878/2 Type C (105°C) MIL-W-16878/1 Type B (80°C) CSA AWM I A/B (80°C/105°C) CSA Type SR-PVC (80°C) CSA TR64 (90°C) Construction Conductors: This lead wire conductor is a tinned copper conductor. The size of the conductor dictates the application and the type of installation the cable will use, as well as its totaling weight; the bigger the conductor the higher the electrical resistivity. Copper has good electrical properties, which improve the voltage distribution of the hook up wire UL 1061 cable, as it will not succumb to deformations. The cable is also tinned for maximum performance. Tinning reduces friction build up as it makes the surface of the conductors smoother. This offers free strip from the insulation, reducing the termination time during installation. Insulation: Reinforced insulation is provided by a black PVC jacket, which is sunlight-resistant, per ICEA S-97-682 and UL Standard 1072. [/short] Hook Up Wire UL 1061 This UL 1061 Hook up Wire is a dual purpose power cable which is desired to perform in either wet or dry environmental locations. It is made of stranded copper conductors which are flexible and lightweight, which are coated by a moisture resistant polyvinyl chloride for chemical and mechanical protection. Conductor It is designed with a wide copper conductor size of 26 AWG through 16 AWG. The size of the conductor dictates the application and the type of installation the cable will use, as well as its totaling weight; the bigger the conductor the higher the electrical resistivity. Copper has good electrical properties which improve the voltage distribution of the Hook up Wire UL 1061 Cable, as it will not succumb to deformations like creeping easily. However, they are also tinned for maximum performance. Tinning reduces friction build up as it makes the surface of the conductors smooth. This offers free strip from the insulation, reducing the termination time during installation. Compliance a) MIL-W-16878/2 Type C (105 degrees Celsius) b) MIL-W-16878/1 Type B (800C) c) UL Standard 758, Style 1061 d) ASTM B 33 e) CSM AWM I A/B; 800C/600 volts Insulation Polyvinyl Chloride is on the outer layer of this cable, and is black color coded for identification. PVC protects the handler as well as the cable from the punishing outdoor environmental conditions. It is flexible and friction resistant to enhance its installation. Applications a) Appliance wirings b) Oils and coolant power lines c) Motor engines d) Transformers
