UL 3271 wire is a type of hook-up wire known for its cross-linked polyethylene (XLPE) insulation and suitability for various internal wiring applications. It's characterized by a 125°C temperature rating and a 600V voltage rating. The wire is constructed with a soft annealed, tinned copper conductor and is commonly used in appliances, computers, and industrial controls.
Key Features:
XLPE Insulation: Cross-linked polyethylene provides excellent electrical properties, flame resistance, and resistance to chemicals, solvents, and moisture.
Temperature Rating: 125°C, indicating its ability to withstand higher temperatures compared to standard PVC insulated wires.Voltage Rating: 600V, suitable for a wide range of low-voltage applications.
Tinned Copper Conductor: Offers corrosion resistance and enhanced electrical conductivity.
RoHS Compliant: Meets environmental standards for restricted substances.
Flame Resistance: Meets UL VW-1 and FT2 flame test standards.Applications: Widely used for internal wiring in appliances, computers, motor leads, transformers, and other electronic and industrial equipment.
Flexibility: XLPE insulation offers good flexibility for easier installation.
Durability: Resistant to abrasion, chemicals, and aging, making it suitable for harsh environments.
