UL 3385 Wires
UL 3385 covers the specification for single core XLPE insulated cables and wires (frequently referred to as “hook-up wire”)used in the internal wiring of electronic and electrical equipment. Their uniform insulation thickness ensures easy stripping and cutting
APPLICATIONS
Internal Wiring of electrical & electronic equipment used for
wiring & cable assemblies in data electronic equipment
Used in wiring of motors, transformers, switchboard, panels,
rectifier, electronic and electrical circuits etc.
Also used in various electrical heating circuits

Nickel Plated Copper Wire combines the high electrical conductivity of copper with the corrosion and heat resistance of nickel. A uniform nickel coating is electroplated over pure copper wire, enhancing its performance in high-temperature and oxidizing environments. This wire is ideal for applications requiring long-term stability, solderability, and resistance to tarnish and chemical attack.\\nKey Features:\\nExcellent oxidation and corrosion resistance\\nMaintains performance at elevated temperatures\\nGood solderability and surface stability\\nExtended shelf life and resistance to tarnish\\nCompatible with high-frequency and high-voltage applications\\n \\nApplications:\\nHeating elements and resistance coils\\nLead wires for electronic components\\nAerospace and defense wiring\\nHigh-temperature cable assemblies\\nBattery and fuel cell interconnects\\nEMI/RFI shielding braids and flexible connectors\\n \\n
