Codes follow the current Belden catalogue for global and EMEA availability. Tell us the conductor size, colour and length you need and we will confirm the exact ordering code.
How to choose a hook-up wire
Four details decide the wire: the voltage rating, the highest temperature at the wire, the insulation material and the conductor size.
Insulation
PVC covers general wiring inside equipment. Silicone rubber, PTFE and other fluoropolymers are the choice for high temperature. Rubber types such as EPDM, CSPE and neoprene are used for motor and appliance leads.
Approvals
Many types carry UL AWM style, CSA or military type markings. If your design calls for a specific style or approval, state it in the request and we will check it on the Belden datasheet.
Colour and put-up
State the colour and the length per colour. This avoids a second round of questions and shortens the quotation.
Why Belden?
- More than 700 codes from 300 V to 40 kV in one range
- Insulations for every temperature class from 80 °C to 200 °C
- Belden draws and anneals its own conductors and mixes its own insulation compounds
- Types with UL AWM, CSA and military markings
- A wide choice of colours and constructions
- Datasheets for each code on belden.com
Why PROTEL?
- Authorised Belden distributor. Products come directly from the manufacturer.
- Stock. Commonly used types are kept in stock.
- Cut lengths. You do not have to buy a full reel.
- Selection support. Tell us your line and devices; we recommend a type and explain why.
- Worldwide supply. Shipped from our warehouses in Germany and Turkey.
Frequently asked questions
Which Belden hook-up wire should I use for high temperature?
For 150 °C and 200 °C Belden lists silicone rubber, EPDM, XL-DUR and TFE types. Send us the temperature, the voltage and the conductor size and we will name the code.
I only have a UL AWM style number. Can you find the Belden code?
Yes. Send the style number, the conductor size and the colour. We match it to the Belden code and quote it.
Does Belden offer wire for rail and solar applications in this range?
Yes. The RailTuff wires and the PV wire types are listed by Belden in the same category and are included in the table above.
Are test lead and high voltage wires available?
Yes. Belden lists test prod wire up to 5000 V and high voltage leads from 17000 to 40000 V.
Do I have to buy a full reel?
No. We supply cut lengths. The part number and the total length are enough.
Request a quote
- If you know the code: the part number, total length and delivery country are enough.
- If you do not: send your application, line length and environment; we recommend the type.
- If you have a specification or BOQ: send it and we will return the matching part numbers.
