UL AWM Wire classification and wire surface printing description

UL, short for Underwriters Laboratories, was established in 1894 as a non-profit organization for the purpose of public safety inspection and verification with the assistance of the American Fire Insurance Institute. UL specifications are led by wires and electrical machines to prevent fires caused by quality problems of burning appliances, fireproofing devices, etc. The safety and quality of products that have been examined to meet this specification have a good reputation in the United States and around the world. General companies through strict UL agency factory review and product review, there will be a number of corresponding wires (general electronic connection wires, isolation wires, power cables, computer wires and equipment lines, etc.) UL certification, versatility and safety have a good guarantee. In order to prove that it conforms to the UL specification, the LABEL is affixed on the product, which is divided into UL attached cards and labels.

AWM Electronic cable standard is UL’s earliest cable standard. UL758 is based on this standard, and all electronic cable specifications can be found on the corresponding page.
