UL 1283

UL 1283 MTW/TEW wire combines stranded bare or tinned copper conductors with high-performance polyvinyl chloride (PVC) insulation, engineered to exceed UL and National Electric Code standards. This professional-grade wire features dual temperature ratings of 105°C (TEW/CSA) and 90°C (MTW) while providing superior moisture resistance and VW-1 flame test compliance. Available in comprehensive size ranges (6 AWG - 500 MCM), with specialized certifications including BC-5W2, CT rating (1 AWG - 500 MCM), and SAE J1127 Type SGT (6 AWG - 4/0). The versatile construction ensures reliable performance in uninterruptible power supplies, machine tools, control cabinets, electronic circuits, meters, transformers, and switchboards. Perfect for both internal and external appliance wiring applications requiring comprehensive certification compliance and exceptional environmental resistance in demanding electrical installations.
