[short] Type MTW/UL1283 Bare Copper Wire Applications: The stranded machine tool wire is an electrical wire developed for use in the internal wiring for electrical appliances and equipment, serving both in the indoor and outdoor applications in the domestic set up. Due to its exceptional electrical conductivity, the cable is also used in the panels and meters internal wiring, as well as point to point wiring. The lead wire is flame-retardant and has a high-temperature rating of 105ºC at 600V and 90ºC at 1,000V, which implies that this electrical cable can work efficiently in harsh climatic conditions. Also Known As: Machine tool wire, lead wire cable, lead cable, lead wire, lead covered wire, electrical lead wire, high voltage lead wire, type ul. Standards: The UL Style 1015 of voltage rating 600V and temperature of 105°C The UL Style 1032 of voltage rating 1,000V and temperature of 90°C UL VW-1 Flame Test RoHS Compliant Construction Conductors: This machine tool wire conductor is made up of copper wire. It comes in two different conductor types; stranded or solid. Some of the conductors are bare while others are tinned. Since copper is highly reactive, it is appropriate to use tinned copper wire in areas where there are more chemical reactions. Stranded conductor serves you right in applications that need more flexibility while the solid wire is good for systems where cable strength is the top requirement. Insulation: The machine tool wire cable has a color-coded Polyvinyl Chloride (PVC) material that serves as the insulation material for the stranded tinned copper hook up wire. This PVC has ultra-high strength and durability, providing reliable security to the conductors. [/short] TYPE MTW/UL1283 BARE COPPER WIRE This cable is specially designed to reach the requirements of the UL (Underwriter Laboratories). This cable is very flexible and easily portable. The cable is approved for use in both internal and external wiring. Conductor The MTW UL1283 STRANDED BARE COPPER HOOK UP WIRE is available with conductors that are tinned copper Hook Up wire or stranded bare copper Hook Up wire. The tinned copper conductors are more durable since tin-plating reduces the rate of corrosion. Tinning also increases the lifespan of the cable since it increases flexibility therefore allowing for multiple folding without breaking. The stranded bare cooper is also good since copper offers very high conductivity with low resistance to the flow of currents. The cable preferred for operations at a temperature range of -40 to 105 degrees Centigrade (221F). The cable also transmits electricity of voltage of up to 600 volts RMS. It is also a RoHS compliant. Insulation The conductor is insulated with a color coded Polyvinyl Chloride (PVC), the colors may be pure or even stripped. PVC is a unique flame retardant, moisture, acid-diesel, abrasion and oil resistance .It also passes the VW-1 flame test, meaning that it can withstand very high temperature without getting damaged. Color Code: The cable is available in different color codes ranging from; red, green, blue, yellow, black, white to brown.
