Rating80 deg C, 300 Vac, Cable flame.
Conductor36 AWG - 6 AWG, solid or stranded.
InsulationLabeled or complying with manufacturer's AWM Procedure. The designations of all styles of individual conductors used in making up the cable assembly shall be available.
AssemblyTwo or more individually insulated conductors or groups of insulated conductors cabled together to form a round cable. A flat or oval cable may also be constructed with no more than three rows of single conductors or groups of conductors. The length of lay of the twisted conductors or groups is not specified.
