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 and SSB) wire and permits continuous conductor temperature ratings of -55ºC to +150ºC with tin-coated copper or -55 ºC to + 200 ºC with silver-coated copper. 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
