RS PRO Red 10 mm² (8 AWG) Tri-Rated Hook Up Wire 600 V 105°C Polyvinyl Chloride Insulation 100 m Length 628-5314

RS PRO model 628-5314 is a professional-grade Red Hook Up Wire with a cross-sectional area of 10 mm² (equivalent to 8 AWG), designed for industrial, laboratory, and commercial electrical use that requires reliable tri-rated cable solutions. The cable core consists of 72 strands of 0.4 mm diameter annealed copper, ensuring high conductivity and enhanced flexibility compliant with BS EN 60228:2005 class 5 standards. The insulation is made of heat resistant Polyvinyl Chloride (PVC), allowing continuous operation up to 90°C, with short-term tolerance up to 105°C, making it suitable for high-temperature control panel environments.

This tri-rated cable is certified to meet the stringent requirements of three key standards: British Standard BS6231, Underwriters Laboratories UL 1028, and Canadian Standards Association CSA C22.2 Type TEW, enabling its use in both European and North American markets. The red PVC jacket provides clear wire identification within complex installations and wiring harnesses.

The 100 m length spool facilitates extensive wiring runs for equipment such as motor starters, control switchgear, instrumentation panels, relay controls, and other industrial electrical devices requiring flexible, high-quality conductors. Suitable applications encompass electrical cabinets, power switchgear assemblies, motor control centers, and small electrical devices used across manufacturing, industrial automation, and electrical infrastructure sectors.

The cable operates reliably in environments ranging from a minimum temperature of -15°C up to a maximum operating temperature of 105°C. The outside diameter measures approximately 6.8 mm, ensuring compatibility with standard conduit sizes and cable management systems. The conductor's annealed copper strands deliver excellent mechanical and electrical performance, vital for safe and efficient energy distribution.

The flexible stranded conductor allows for easy installation in confined spaces and high-flex applications. Polyvinyl Chloride jacket offers robust flame retardant properties for enhanced safety. Multi-standard approvals validate cable suitability for global installations.

Red insulation color improves wiring identification and maintenance accuracy. Ideal for use in panel building, industrial machinery wiring, and switchgear manufacturing.

RS PRO 628-5314 Red Tri-Rated Hook Up Wire is an essential component for engineers and technicians seeking dependable, standard-compliant wiring solutions for electrical and automation projects. Its proven performance in high-temperature environments and multi-standard compliance provide confidence for demanding industrial applications.
