About Wire and Cable

Compare wire vs. cable and choose the right option based on gauge, number of conductors, insulation, and current rating.

High-Voltage Wire

Use for panel and equipment (hook-up)
Flexible
Temperature Range: -40° to 300° F
Insulation: Silicone Rubber

Use this wire in high-voltage applications, such as in high-power signs and lasers. It’s also known as corona-resistant hook-up wire. Made of silicone rubber, the insulation resists abrasion. It’s flame rated VW-1 to meet requirements for preventing the spread of flames based on a timed test with vertically suspended material.
