UL 10269 Oil Resistant PVC Wire — 1000V AC / 1250V DC / 80–105°C — Vietnam and Indonesia
UL AWM Style 10269 is a single-conductor extruded PVC insulated wire rated at 80°C, 90°C, or 105°C and 1000V AC or 1250V DC under UL Subject 758. It covers a conductor range from 30 AWG through 2000 kcmil — one of the broadest conductor ranges in the AWM family — and is available with an optional oil resistance rating at 60°C or 80°C for applications where hydraulic oil, machine lubricating oil, or similar fluids contact the wire surface as a routine operating condition.
The defining characteristic of UL 10269 relative to other AWM PVC styles is its 1000V AC / 1250V DC voltage rating, achieved through a thicker PVC insulation wall than UL 1015 (600V) or UL 1007 (300V). This makes it the appropriate AWM specification for internal wiring in equipment where the internal bus voltage or circuit voltage exceeds the 600V limit of UL 1015 — including 690V class variable frequency drives, motor control centres, and 1000V-class power distribution equipment.
Vietnamese procurement engineers specify UL 10269 as dây điện 1000V chịu dầu (1000V oil-resistant wire). Indonesian procurement refers to it as kabel tahan minyak 1000V (1000V oil-resistant cable). Export supply: CIF Ho Chi Minh City and CIF Surabaya.

Applications in Vietnam and Indonesia
Variable frequency drive (VFD) internal wiring — Vietnam manufacturing zones
Variable frequency drives installed in Vietnamese manufacturing facilities — automotive parts suppliers, electronics assembly plants, and textile machinery operations — contain internal DC bus voltages that can exceed the 600V limit of UL 1015. A standard 400V three-phase VFD operates with a DC bus at approximately 560V DC; a 690V class VFD operates at approximately 980V DC. UL 10269’s 1000V AC / 1250V DC rating covers both standard and high-voltage class VFD bus voltages. The optional oil resistance grade provides additional durability in VFD cabinets installed in machine tool and metalworking environments where cutting fluid mist may enter the cabinet during operation. Vietnamese VFD repair and maintenance operations specifying dây điện 1000V chịu dầu for DC bus section rewiring source UL 10269 for this internal wiring application.
Motor control centre (MCC) internal bus wiring — Indonesia industrial installations
Motor control centres in Indonesian industrial facilities — petrochemical plants, cement manufacturing, and food processing operations — require internal wiring rated to 1000V at the main bus sections. UL 10269’s broad conductor range allows a single AWM specification to cover both the fine control circuit wiring (small AWG) and heavy power bus conductors (large AWG) inside the same MCC enclosure. Indonesian MCC manufacturers and panel builders in Surabaya and Jakarta specify UL 10269 for main bus wiring and high-voltage internal wiring sections of MCC assemblies submitted for UL listing.
Oil-resistant wiring in hydraulic equipment — Indonesia heavy equipment
Indonesian manufacturers of hydraulic presses, injection moulding machines, and hydraulic lifting equipment route internal control panel wiring in environments where hydraulic fluid contact with the wire surface is a routine operating condition. The optional oil-resistant PVC compound of UL 10269 — rated at 60°C or 80°C — maintains flexibility and insulation integrity under sustained oil contact, resisting the plasticiser extraction that causes standard PVC insulation to harden over time. Specifying the oil-resistant grade of UL 10269 satisfies both the 1000V insulation requirement and the oil resistance requirement in a single wire specification.
Large conductor power distribution wiring — Vietnam and Indonesia
UL 10269’s conductor range extends to 2000 kcmil, covering large power distribution conductors used in main switchboard incoming feeds, large motor starter main circuit wiring, and industrial power bus connections. For applications where both 1000V insulation and UL AWM certification are required — such as the main incoming feed wiring in UL-listed motor control centres — UL 10269 covers the full conductor size range from fine control wiring to large power conductors in the same panel assembly.
Additional applications
- Industrial CNC machine tool internal panel wiring in Vietnamese and Indonesian precision machining facilities where cutting fluid contact is routine and 1000V insulation is required
- Elevator and escalator drive control panel internal wiring requiring 1000V-rated AWM for traction drive equipment
- Industrial welding equipment power section internal wiring where 1000V insulation is required
- Marine and offshore equipment control panel wiring requiring oil-resistant 1000V-rated internal wiring — Indonesian shipbuilding and offshore equipment suppliers
Oil Resistance Grade — Technical Note
The oil resistance option under UL 10269 is available only at the 60°C and 80°C temperature ratings. If the application requires oil resistance at the 105°C temperature rating, confirm availability at enquiry stage. The oil-resistant PVC compound is formulated to maintain mechanical and electrical properties under sustained contact with hydraulic mineral oil and machine lubricating oil — confirm compatibility with the specific fluid type in your application before specifying.
