Appliance wiring cables are manufactured as per UL/CSA standards and are used for internal wiring of panels and electrical equipment.

There are single-core cables viz. UL 1015, UL 1007, UL 1569 and UL 1275 in this category, used for internal wiring of switchboards, televisions, appliances and refrigeration equipment. These cables are also used as lead wire / hook-up wire. Single cores are available from 21 AWG to 500 kcmil. UL 3289 is a single-core cable suitable for use from -50°C to +150°C.

This category also offers multicore cables viz. UL 2587, UL 2464, UL 2576, UL 2598 and UL 2586, used in measuring, control and the connection between control panels and machines. These comply with flame-retardant characteristics as per UL VW-1 and CSA FT1/FT2 as applicable.

The category also offers Tri-rated cable manufactured as per UL 1015, CSA 22.2 and BS 6231.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is UL appliance wiring material used for?

UL appliance wiring material is used for the internal wiring of appliances, motors, control panels, and electronic equipment that requires compliance with UL and MIL specifications.

What temperature ratings are available?

Depending on the insulation type, WIPE hotwire UL Appliance Wiring Material is available in temperature ratings from 80°C to 200°C.

What is the difference between VW-1, FT1, and FT2 flame ratings?

These are flame-test classifications under UL and CSA standards that indicate a cable's resistance to flame propagation. The applicable rating depends on the cable's insulation, jacket, and intended use.

What insulation types are used in UL appliance wiring?

The range includes ETFE, XLPE and PVC insulated constructions, selected based on temperature class, flexibility, and application requirements.

Is UL appliance wiring material suitable for motor lead applications?

Yes, select constructions in this range are rated for switchboard panel and Class B motor lead wiring applications.

WIPE hotwire UL-appliance wiring material supports manufacturers who need dependable, standards-compliant wiring for internal equipment builds. As UL-approved appliance wiring, the range includes ETFE-insulated, XLPE-insulated, and PVC-insulated wires, each suited to different temperature classes and flame-rating requirements. For teams sourcing internal wiring for appliances, motors, and control panels, this range offers a consistent option across conductor sizes, from fine-gauge signal wiring to heavier motor-lead applications.

Because UL- and MIL-approved wire is used across regulated industries, from medical equipment to industrial control systems, having a single source for VW-1, FT1, and FT2-rated constructions simplifies sourcing and reduces qualification time. WIPE hotwire appliance wiring material supports this need, offering flame- and temperature-rated internal wiring for appliance manufacturers, panel builders, and OEM equipment producers.
