UL 1007 26 AWG PVC Wire Overview
UL AWM Style 1007 is a single-conductor PVC insulated wire construction, supplied by CableApex as a factory-direct manufacturer. This page focuses specifically on the 26 AWG configuration within Style 1007’s broader 32 AWG–16 AWG conductor range. The wire is rated 80°C and 300 Vac, with extruded PVC insulation. This is a dedicated 26 AWG procurement page, distinct from our other UL 1007 pages covering different AWG sizes and procurement intents.

26 AWG Internal Wiring for Compact Appliance Assemblies
This page focuses specifically on the 26 AWG configuration within UL Style 1007’s 32 AWG–16 AWG conductor range. Where equipment designers specify 26 AWG, its smaller conductor size can be relevant to routing-space planning compared with larger AWG constructions — but 26 AWG is not automatically the correct size for every compact assembly; conductor size should be selected according to the equipment design and electrical requirements. We do not publish ampacity, allowable current, maximum current, or recommended breaker or fuse size for 26 AWG or any AWG, as current-carrying requirements depend on the equipment design and applicable end-equipment evaluation, not on AWG alone.
Solid or Stranded Conductor Options
UL Style 1007 permits solid or stranded conductor construction; this page does not present 26 AWG as universally stranded. We do not publish strand count, strand diameter, bunching pattern, lay length, or conductor resistance, as none of these are established by the Style-level record. Conductor material and finish are also not established at the Style level — this page does not describe UL 1007 as universally tinned copper, bare copper, or oxygen-free copper; conductor material or plating should be specified when requesting a quotation.
15-Mil Minimum Average PVC Insulation
The conductor is insulated with extruded PVC at a minimum average thickness of 15 mils and a minimum thickness of 13 mils at any point. This is precise UL terminology — a minimum average thickness, not a nominal production dimension — and we do not calculate or publish a finished outside diameter from AWG and insulation thickness, as conductor geometry and manufacturing tolerances are not part of the confirmed technical basis for this page. If dimension matters to your design, please provide your required finished OD or maximum routing-space limit with your enquiry.

Appliance Internal Wiring Applications
UL Style 1007’s confirmed use is internal wiring of appliances. Appropriate commercial application language for this page includes appliance internal wiring, protected internal appliance connections, component-to-component appliance wiring, internal appliance harness wiring, OEM appliance internal wiring, and compact appliance internal connections where 26 AWG is specified. Where wire-harness assembly is mentioned, it refers to appliance internal wiring harness production using the qualified Style 1007 component wire — the UL Style applies to the component wire itself, not automatically to a complete assembled harness. This page does not broaden the use into building wiring, branch circuit wiring, field wiring, external power cords, portable cords, tray cable, conduit wire, or general-purpose external electronics wiring, and it does not imply that UL 1007 carries an unrestricted electronic-equipment use classification beyond appliance internal wiring.
What 26 AWG Does and Does Not Define
Choosing 26 AWG establishes the conductor size within the Style 1007 range — it does not by itself establish flexibility class, bend radius, current-carrying capacity, or termination performance. This page does not describe 26 AWG as ultra-flexible, high-flex, or drag-chain suitable, and does not publish a minimum or recommended bend radius. We also do not make unsupported comparative claims such as 26 AWG being more efficient, more flexible, or better suited to compact designs than other Style 1007 gauges — gauge selection depends on your equipment’s electrical and mechanical requirements. If your application involves soldering, crimping, or both, this can be noted as part of your enquiry, but this page does not claim universal solderability, ideal crimpability, or specific terminal compatibility.
Optional Oil Rating and 600V Peak Tag
UL Style 1007 permits an optional 60°C or 80°C oil designation, available only where included in the qualified construction — this page does not state that every UL 1007 26 AWG order is automatically oil resistant. Separately, the Style permits a tag statement indicating “600 V Peak — For Electronic Use Only.” This is not equivalent to a 600 Vac continuous rating; the primary continuous voltage rating for this page remains 300 Vac throughout.

UL Marking and Documentation
Qualifying UL AWM Style 1007 constructions can be supplied through the relevant qualified manufacturing scope for this Style. UL marking and documentation are confirmed according to the qualified Style 1007 construction supplied for the order and are not identical across every commercial variation. RoHS and REACH are separate regulatory frameworks from UL recognition; applicable RoHS / REACH documentation requirements can be confirmed according to the ordered construction.
