Overview
WIPE hotwire AV wire is a low-tension electric wire for automobiles, manufactured to JIS C 3406. Used in motorcycles and other motor vehicles for starting, charging, lighting, signal and instrument-panel circuits, AV wire is especially suited to circuits requiring heat resistance, built with a lead-free PVC insulation over a soft-annealed electrolytic copper conductor.
Applications
- Starting, charging, lighting, signal and instrument-panel circuits
- Motorcycles and other motor vehicles
- Especially used for circuits requiring heat resistance
