UL 758 AWM 1007 Lead Wire – 80°C / 300V PVC Insulated
UL 758 AWM Style 1007 is a single-conductor PVC insulated lead wire recognised under UL’s Appliance Wiring Material (AWM) standard, specifically designed for internal wiring of appliances and electronic equipment. The designation “UL 758” refers to the UL standard governing AWM wire, while “Style 1007” defines the precise construction and performance requirements — including the 80°C temperature rating, 300V AC voltage rating, PVC insulation type, and horizontal flame performance.
Produced at our Yangzhou facility under UL Follow-Up Service File No. E333030, every reel of UL 1007 wire carries the UL Recognised Component Mark and is manufactured to the insulation thickness requirements verified by UL Solutions. The wire is available in solid or stranded conductor constructions across the full AWG range specified by the style — making it one of the most versatile and widely specified AWM wires for appliance OEM wiring harnesses, control panel connections, and electronic device internal wiring worldwide.

Common Applications
Appliance internal wiring
UL 1007 is the most widely specified AWM wire for factory internal wiring of household and commercial appliances — washing machines, refrigerators, microwave ovens, air conditioners, and small kitchen appliances. The 300V rating covers standard mains-powered appliance circuits, and the horizontal flame rating satisfies the internal wiring requirements of UL appliance standards including UL 1 (Flexible Cord), UL 544 (Medical Equipment), and appliance-specific standards.
Electronic equipment wiring harnesses
The fine AWG range (32 AWG to 20 AWG) makes UL 1007 the dominant choice for internal wiring harnesses in consumer electronics, computing equipment, telecommunications hardware, and industrial control electronics where multiple low-current signal and power circuits must be routed through compact enclosures. The UL 758 AWM recognition satisfies the component wiring requirements of UL 60950 and UL 62368 equipment standards.
Control panel and switchboard wiring
Larger AWG variants (18 AWG to 16 AWG) are used for power distribution within electrical control panels, connecting MCBs, contactors, and terminal blocks where a UL-recognised wire with documented flame performance is required by the panel builder’s UL 508A listing.
Other applications
- Medical device internal wiring (with appropriate derating)
- Automotive after-market accessory wiring
- LED driver and lighting fixture internal connections
- Power supply and transformer internal lead wires
- Sensor and transducer connection leads
UL 1007 vs UL 1015 — Which to Specify
