PVC Insulated Single Core Wire AWG Size. 300V or 600V, Stranded copper (AWG Class), AWG 28 – AWG 4/0. AWG-sized PVC single core wire for North American and international OEM equipment builders who design to AWG standards. Available in the full range from fine signal wire (AWG 28) to heavy power (AWG 4/0).
AWG-sized PVC single core wire for North American and international OEM equipment builders who design to AWG standards. Available in the full range from fine signal wire (AWG 28) to heavy power (AWG 4/0). PVC insulation provides reliable dielectric properties at the rated voltage with good mechanical protection against abrasion and contact damage in the installation environment.
Available in a full range of cross-sections to suit every application from instrument signal wiring to power distribution, with colour options for conductor identification and country-specific colour coding requirements.

Solid (Class 1) and stranded (Class 2) conductors are for fixed installation — they must not be flexed in service. Fine-stranded (Class 5) conductors can be routed around panel corners and dressed to terminals with repeated repositioning during installation, making them the preferred choice for control panel wiring where neat routing requires bending.
Select cross-section based on the higher of: the current capacity requirement (per IEC 60364-5-52 derating tables) and the voltage drop limit (typically 3% for final circuits). For long cable runs, voltage drop often dictates a larger cross-section than current capacity alone would require.
