Electrical Wire & Cable FAQs

What is SIS wire and when is it required?

SIS is a 600V cross-linked polyethylene switchboard wire required by NEC 408 for wiring inside switchboards and switchgear. We stock SIS from 18 AWG through 4/0 AWG; see our SIS product line for details.

Do you carry dual-rated switchboard wire?

Yes. We stock UL 3173 and similar dual-rated constructions that satisfy SIS, MTW, and appliance wiring requirements with a single part number, simplifying panel shop inventory.

What wire do you recommend for motor leads?

DLO and flexible motor lead wire handle the heat, vibration, and tight bending of motor connections. Our team can match a construction to your motor's voltage, temperature, and flexibility needs.

Can you supply an entire panel shop's wire needs?

Yes. We supply SIS, MTW, hook-up wire, and control cable in the full color range, cut to length or by the spool, with same-day quotes and nationwide shipping.
