scope:
1.1 Scope This Standard publication covers specific requirements for silicone rubber insulated stranded wire, designed for 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, SSB, and ZHSSB) wire and permits continuous conductor temperature ratings of −55ºC to +150ºC with tin-coated copper or −55ºC to +200ºC with silver-coated copper. These types of hook-up wire are used when the following requirements are called for:
a. High-temperature resistance
b. Low-temperature resistance
c. Good flexibility and flex life
d. Solder iron resistance for easier solder terminations without potential damage
e. Type ZHS, ZHSS, and ZHSSB are used for applications requiring low smoke and zero halogen requirements
