Rating	105 deg C, 600 Vac, Cable flame.

Conductor	30 AWG - 9 AWG, solid or stranded.

Insulation	Labeled or complying with manufacturer's AWM Procedure.

Assembly	Two or more individually insulated conductors or groups of insulated conductors cabled together. All conductors in any group twisted together. If more than one group is used, groups shall also be twisted together. The length of lay of the twisted conductors or groups is not specified. A barrier layer, if employed, may be a fibrous wrap serving, or braid; paper; nylon; oriented polyethylene terephthalate; or a thermoplastic-tape wrap. Such a barrier layer would serve to protect the cable during further processing, and would be applied immediately over the twisted assembly of individual conductors or groups of conductors. Fillers required if necessary to form a relatively smooth round core for extrusion of outer jacket.

Covering	Optional. A nominal 15 mils extruded PVC may be extruded over the conductor assembly.

Shield	Optional. 36-30 AWG, tinned or untinned copper applied as a wrap or braid or a wrap of aluminum faced Polyester tape. An uninsulated drain wire may be used. The shield may be over one or more of the insulated conductors or applied between the conductor assembly and the optional covering.

Jacket	Extruded XLPVC.
	Dia of cable under jacket (inches)	Minimum average thickness (mils)	Minimum thickness at any point (mils)
