UL AWM 1032 PVC Wire 20 AWG — 90°C Appliance Wire Rated 1000 Vac and 1200 Vdc
UL AWM 1032 in 20 AWG is a single-conductor appliance wiring material with extruded PVC insulation, rated 90°C maximum at 1000 Vac and/or 1200 Vdc with a horizontal flame rating. At 20 AWG, this size occupies the fine-to-mid range of the UL 1032 conductor span and is a common choice for internal signal and light-duty power conductors in appliances where the circuit voltage exceeds the 600 Vac ceiling of UL 1015. CableApex supplies UL AWM 1032 20 AWG as a UL Recognized Component — file on record.
How UL 1032 Bridges the Voltage Gap in Appliance Wiring
| UL Style | Temp Rating | Voltage Rating | Insulation (20 AWG) |
|---|---|---|---|
| UL 1007 | 80°C | 300 Vac | PVC 15 mils avg |
| UL 1015 | 80–105°C | 600 Vac / 750 Vdc | PVC 30 mils avg |
| UL 1032 (this page) | 90°C | 1000 Vac / 1200 Vdc | PVC 30 mils avg |
| UL 10269 | 80–105°C | 1000 Vac / 1250 Vdc | PVC 30 mils avg |

Applications
Within its permitted use — internal wiring of appliances — UL AWM 1032 20 AWG suits internal signal conductors, sensor feeds and light-duty power leads in appliances where circuit voltage runs above 600 Vac or where the 1200 Vdc rating is required for DC bus connections. Where the tag marking 3500 V peak — for electronic use only is required, this can be specified at time of order. Where oil exposure occurs inside the appliance, the optional 60°C or 80°C oil rating applies. For applications outside internal appliance wiring, confirm application suitability before specifying.
