UL AWM Style 1015 — PVC Hook-Up Wire for Protected Internal Wiring
UL AWM Style 1015 is a PVC-insulated single-conductor hook-up wire for the protected internal wiring of appliances and electrical equipment, covered under UL Subject 758, Section 1. The Style supports temperature classes of 80°C, 90°C, or 105°C, at 600 Vac or 750 Vdc, across a conductor range from 30 AWG to 2000 kcmil. This page focuses on the marketed 105°C / 600V construction. Other constructions within the UL 1015 Style scope are available and should be confirmed at the quotation stage. CableApex supplies UL 1015 PVC wire from factory production, with conductor options, custom colours, spool lengths, and documentation confirmed according to the ordered construction.

Typical Construction Data — 30–9 AWG Range
The AWG sizes below fall within the 30–9 AWG insulation class (30 mils minimum average wall thickness). Conductor stranding, outer diameter, and resistance figures represent typical factory production values for these constructions. Final dimensions, conductor construction, markings, packaging, and documentation depend on the ordered construction and confirmed production specification. These values do not represent the complete UL 1015 conductor range.
| Gauge (AWG) | Conductor Stranding | Insulation Thickness (mm) | Outer Diameter (mm) | Max Resistance (Ω/km) |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 24 AWG | 11/0.16 | 0.76 | 2.20 | 94.2 |
| 20 AWG | 21/0.18 | 0.76 | 2.55 | 36.7 |
| 18 AWG | 34/0.18 | 0.76 | 2.85 | 23.2 |
| 14 AWG | 41/0.25 | 0.76 | 3.55 | 8.96 |
Direct Factory Supply — UL AWM Style 1015
- Direct factory communication: UL 1015 PVC wire orders are handled directly from the production facility, with no intermediate traders — supporting efficient lead-time coordination and technical clarification before and during production.
- Custom colour and spool length options: PVC jacket colour and spool length can be produced to the buyer’s specification. Custom colour requests and applicable minimum order quantities are confirmed at the enquiry stage.
- AWG and stranding options: Standard production covers commonly ordered AWG sizes in the fine-wire range; additional sizes within the full 30 AWG–2000 kcmil Style scope are available upon confirmation. Conductor stranding options can be discussed according to production capability.
- Production quality control: Dimensional checks and electrical tests are applied during production to verify insulation wall thickness, continuity, and voltage withstand consistent with the ordered construction.
- Export documentation coordination: Commercial Invoice, Packing List, Certificate of Origin (CCPIT), and Bill of Lading are provided as standard. UL Style documentation is available according to the ordered and confirmed construction. RoHS and REACH documentation is available on request where applicable to the order.
For 300V PVC AWM hook-up wire applications, UL AWM Style 1007 (80°C / 300V, 32–16 AWG, extruded PVC, 15 mils minimum wall) is available as the lower-voltage class alternative for appliance internal wiring that does not require the 600V insulation level of UL 1015.
