Single Conductor Cables (Hook-Up Wire)

The 55/0812-24-2 application field and working principle can be classified under single conductor cables, commonly known as hook-up wires. Hook-up wires are primarily used as internal wiring for the interconnection of components on electronic equipment. They are primarily divided into two categories: signal and power. Hook-up wires offer additional features such as radio interference suppression and UL & CSA certifications for hazardous locations.

Construction of Hook-Up Wire

Hook-up wires are usually constructed with an insulating jacket surrounding one or more internal conductors. The jacket is usually made of PVC, FEP, XLPE, or silicone. Instead of PVC, FEP, and XLPE, glass or ceramic fibers may also be used for the insulation. The PVC jacket is usually white, black, red, or yellow in color. The conductor used in hook-up wire is made up of copper, tinned copper, or silver. The conductor size ranges from 22 AWG to 12 AWG, with 12 AWG being the most common size used.

Advantages of Hook-Up Wire

Hook-up wires are highly versatile and offer many advantages when used in electronic applications. They are easy to install and require minimal tools and labor, which makes them ideal for quick wiring of components. The single conductor construction makes it easier to troubleshoot electrical problems. Hook-up wires are designed to be resistant to heat, oil, and abrasion; they can also be used in harsh industrial environments. The jackets are often color-coded to allow for easy identification.

Application of Hook-Up Wire

Hook-up wires are used in a variety of applications, including industrial controls, computers and peripheral devices, electronic controls, electrical panels, voice, data, and video communication systems, audio and sound systems, instrumentation, home appliances, motors and circuit breakers, power and lighting circuits, automotive and submersible applications.

Temperature Rating of Hook-Up Wire

The temperature rating of hook-up wires is an important factor to consider when selecting a wire for a given application. The temperature rating indicates the maximum temperature that the wire can safely withstand without degradation of its electrical and physical properties. The temperature rating of hook-up wires is usually between -40°C to 105°C, depending on the type and construction of the wire.
