Rating	200 deg C, 600 Vac, Horizontal flame.

Conductor	18 AWG - 12 AWG strands over 0.015 in stranded. Heating Element - Nichrome, copper alloy or other suitable resistance wire is spirally wound around the insulation; the AWG size of wire, number of turns, length between contact with the copper conductor are dependent upon the wattage demand and the voltage used to energize the cable.

Insulation	Extruded FEP, 10 mils min average, 9 mils minimum at any point.

Assembly	Three or four conductors; The three conductor parallel cord is now prepared for the spiral wound heating element. This is done by carefully removing the FEP insulation along the length of the cord so as to bare the copper conductor for approx 0.5 in widths at periodic intervals.
