6830 BL005

Single Conductor Cables (Hook-Up Wire)

The 6830 BL005 application field and working principle are part of the Single Conductor Cables (Hook-Up Wire) family. This type of wire is used in many areas, from cellular phone and wiring infrastructure to industrial and consumer applications like electronic equipment and automotive applications.

The main use of Hook-Up Wire is to facilitate the connection of one device to another. This type of wire typically comes in two varieties: solid wire or stranded wire. Solid wire is preferred, when possible, for its superior performance and longevity, whereas stranded wire is selected for applications in areas that require the flexibility of the wire, such as in audio or video applications.

The working principle of hook-up wire consists of a conductor wrapped in insulation. The main purpose of this insulation is to protect the conductor from oxidation over time, and to provide a safe electrical connection between components. The insulation also serves to prevent high frequency or radio frequency interference from affecting the signal. The 6830 BL005 is a single-conductor solid hook-up wire, with 20 AWG gauge and PVC insulation. The 20 AWG gauge translates to a wire diameter of 0.0314 inches (0.80 mm).

The 6830 BL005 is UL recognized, and its main ratings and characteristics are as follows: Temperature Rating: 80°C (176°F); Voltage Rating: 300V; Insulation: PVC; Conductor: Stranded Tinned Copper.

The 6830 BL005 is available in a variety of colors, allowing users to color-coordinate their wiring. This simplifies cable organization and can help identifying the purpose of a particular wire in a circuit.

The 6830 BL005 has a wide range of applications, from complex wiring needs, to simple power cords. They are commonly used in the aviation, automotive and consumer electronics industries, such as cellular phones. They are also widely used in the medical industry, as they have the capacity to sustain extreme temperatures (Source).

In summary, the 6830 BL005 is a single-cored Hook-Up Wire that is used in a variety of applications. It is UL recognized and is well suited for audio and video applications, due to its solid core construction and low diameter. It is a great choice for organizational wiring jobs.
