RS PRO Blue 10 mm² 8 AWG Hook Up Wire, 72 x 0.4 mm Core Strands, 100 m Length, Polyvinyl Chloride Insulation, 600V 628-5291

RS PRO 628-5291 Blue 10 mm² 8 AWG Hook Up Wire is a high-quality Tri-Rated cable featuring 72 strands of 0.4 mm diameter annealed copper conductor. The cable has a Polyvinyl Chloride (PVC) jacket offering high heat resistance with a maximum operating temperature of 105°C and is rated for 600V. Designed according to BS EN 60228:2005 class 5 flexibility standards, this cable combines excellent electrical conductivity with flexibility for demanding industrial environments.

Tri-Rated cable is also known as BS6231 cable, panel wire, or switchgear cable. It meets the stringent specifications of British Standards Institute (BSI), Underwriters Laboratories (UL), and Canadian Standards Association (CSA), providing a triple rating that allows its use across multiple international markets.

This cable is ideal for wiring applications in electrical cabinets, switch control gear, relay and instrumentation panels, motor starters, and controllers. The robust PVC insulation provides flame retardant properties while enabling operation in high temperature settings common in industrial control panels and power switchgear.

The blue insulation aids easy identification during panel wiring and installation. The 100 meter length coil is suited for medium to large scale wiring jobs requiring continuous runs without joints.

The cable has a 10 mm² cross-sectional area providing reliable current carrying capability. Annealed copper strands ensure excellent electrical conductivity and mechanical flexibility. Its insulation material is heat resistant Polyvinyl Chloride suitable for temperatures up to 105°C.

Tri-rated standards ensure compatibility with safety and quality regulations in the UK, Europe, and North America. Used extensively in panel building, motor control centers, switchgear, and industrial electrical installations.

Meets the requirements for BS 6231 Type CK, UL 1028, and CSA C22.2 Type TEW certifications.
