UL 1015 Wire

UL 1015 Wire

For compliant internal wiring across appliances, motors, and control equipment

Overview

WIPE hotwire UL Appliance Wiring Material is manufactured to UL and MIL specifications for internal wiring in appliances, motors, control panels, and electronic equipment. The range covers ETFE, XLPE, and PVC-insulated conductors across multiple temperature classes, voltage ratings, and flame ratings, providing manufacturers with a single source for compliant internal wiring across diverse equipment types.

These cables are designed for internal wiring of panels and electrical equipment, for use as connection wire in machines, for installation in protective tubes and flexible pipes, and for a wide range of internal wiring applications where UL and CSA compliance is non-negotiable.
