scope:
This Standard Publication covers specific requirements for Silicone Rubber insulated stranded wire, designed to the internal wiring of high reliability electrical and electronic equipment. This Standards Publication addresses 600 V (Type S, ZHS) and 1000 V (Type SS, ZHSS and SSB) wire and permits continuous conductor temperature ratings of -55ºC to +150ºC (tin-copper) or +200ºC (silver-copper) with either tin-coated or silver-coated conductors. These types of hook-up wire are used when the following requirements are called for:
• High temperature resistance
• Low temperature resistance
• Good flexibility and flex life
• Solder iron resistance for easier solder terminations without potential damage
• Type ZHS, and ZHSS are used for applications requiring Low Smoke and Zero Halogen requirements.
