UL1007 wire is one of the most widely used Appliance Wiring Material (AWM) wires recognized under UL 758 standards. It is a single-core PVC insulated hook-up wire designed primarily for the internal wiring of electrical and electronic equipment. UL1007 wire features copper conductors, either stranded or solid, covered with high-quality PVC insulation, providing excellent electrical performance, flexibility, and durability.
Due to its balance of safety, affordability, and versatility, UL1007 has become a standard choice for appliance manufacturers, control panel builders, electronics manufacturers, and wiring harness suppliers worldwide.
The standard specifications of UL1007 wire are:
Item | Specification |
|---|---|
UL Style | UL1007 |
Standard | UL 758 AWM |
Rated Voltage | 300V |
Rated Temperature | 80°C |
Conductor | Bare Copper or Tinned Copper |
Conductor Type | Solid or Stranded |
Insulation Material | PVC |
Flame Test | VW-1 Flame Test |
Available Sizes | 32AWG to 16AWG |
UL1007 wire is specifically designed for internal equipment wiring where temperatures do not exceed 80°C and operating voltage remains within 300V.
UL1007 wire uses high-conductivity copper conductors to ensure excellent electrical performance.
Available conductor options include:
Bare Copper
Tinned Copper
Solid Copper
Stranded Copper
Stranded conductors provide greater flexibility, making installation easier in confined spaces and wiring harness assemblies.
The insulation is made from durable PVC (Polyvinyl Chloride), offering:
Good abrasion resistance
Moisture resistance
Chemical resistance
Easy stripping and processing
Reliable electrical insulation
The uniform insulation thickness helps improve manufacturing efficiency and installation convenience.
UL1007 wire is commonly used for internal wiring in various electrical and electronic products.
Examples include:
Air conditioners
Refrigerators
Washing machines
Microwave ovens
Coffee machines
Control panels
Electrical cabinets
Automation equipment
Industrial machinery
Power supplies
Electronic instruments
Communication equipment
Consumer electronics
UL1007 wire is widely used in:
Automotive auxiliary systems
Electrical harness assemblies
Equipment interconnections
Its flexibility and easy processing characteristics make it ideal for mass production wiring harnesses.
Compared with higher-temperature wires such as UL1015 or UL3265, UL1007 offers a cost-effective solution for standard 80°C applications.
The PVC insulation is easy to strip, cut, crimp, and terminate, making it suitable for automated production lines.
UL-recognized construction ensures stable electrical performance and compliance with international safety requirements.
UL1007 wire is available in a wide range of colors for easy circuit identification and wiring management.
Manufacturers can select stranded or solid conductors depending on the application requirements.
Many customers ask about the difference between UL1007 and UL1015.
Feature | UL1007 | UL1015 |
Voltage Rating | 300V | 600V |
Temperature Rating | 80°C | 105°C |
Insulation | PVC | PVC |
Cost | Lower | Higher |
Typical Application | General Internal Wiring | Higher Temperature Equipment |
If your application requires higher voltage resistance or elevated operating temperatures, UL1015 may be a better choice. Otherwise, UL1007 is often the most economical solution.
When selecting UL1007 wire, consider the following factors:
Common sizes include:
26AWG
24AWG
22AWG
20AWG
18AWG
16AWG
Choose the conductor size according to current-carrying requirements and installation conditions.
Bare copper for standard applications
Tinned copper for enhanced corrosion resistance
Solid conductor for fixed installations
Stranded conductor for flexible routing
Ensure the operating temperature remains within the UL1007 rating of 80°C. For harsher environments, consider higher-rated alternatives.
