Overview
WIPE hotwire UL 3290 wire is an XLPE-insulated AWM wire manufactured to UL Standard 758 and CSA C22.2 No. 210, rated for 125°C and 600V. It is built for the internal wiring of appliances exposed to temperatures not exceeding 125°C, with typical applications including heat pumps and refrigerating equipment. UL 3290 offers high dielectric strength and resistance to heat, moisture, ozone, and chemicals, with excellent resistance to abrasion, deformation, and cut-through.
Applications
- Internal wiring of appliances
- Heat pumps
- Refrigerating equipment
