"The professional standard for high-density control panels—engineered with high-performance XLPE insulation and tinned copper for maximum reliability in environments up to 125°C."
The 14 AWG SIS wire is a specialized high-temperature conductor designed for precision electrical systems, fully compliant with UL 3173 standards. It is the primary choice for utility-scale switchgear, industrial control panels, and transformer leads. Our Cross-linked Polyethylene (XLP) insulation is thermoset, meaning it provides superior resistance to melting or deformation even when exposed to high-thermal stress or accidental contact with soldering equipment.
125°C Heat Resistance: Rated for continuous use in extreme thermal environments where standard building wire (90°C) fails.
Tinned Copper Conductor: Features a tin coating over the stranded copper to prevent corrosion and ensure effortless soldering and termination in high-humidity panels.
Chemically Cross-Linked (XLP): The insulation is chemically bonded to ensure it maintains structural integrity under extreme heat.
UL 3173 / CSA CL1251 Rated: Fully compliant with industrial standards for switchgear, control circuits, and internal appliance wiring.
ENGINEERING OVERVIEW: 14 AWG SIS UL 3173 600V
APPLICATION: Internal wiring of switchboards, control panels, and power distribution equipment.
VOLTAGE: Rated for 600 Volts.
CONDUCTORS: 41-strand soft drawn tinned coated copper per ASTM B33 and B174.
INSULATION: Cross-linked polyethylene (XLP), Type SIS.
TEMPERATURE: 125°C (257°F).
NOMINAL OD: 0.136 inches (3.45 mm).
Panelboard Power Feeders: Used for the primary internal power distribution within industrial control cabinets.
Large Relay Banks: Ideal for wiring high-draw contactors and heavy-duty industrial relays.
Transformer Secondary Leads: Connecting the output of industrial transformers to terminal strips.
Industrial Heater Controls: Wiring the control side of high-temperature industrial heating elements.
Utility Substations: Providing rugged, reliable power connections for grid-monitoring equipment.
Technical Note: All values are nominal and subject to industry tolerances and manufacturer corrections. Specifications are subject to change without notice. It is the buyer’s responsibility to verify that all materials meet the specific requirements of the project and comply with local electrical codes.

SIS Switchboard wire is rated for 125°C (257°F). This makes it significantly more heat-resistant than standard THHN wire (90°C). It is specifically designed to maintain its electrical integrity in the "hot zones" inside electrical cabinets and industrial machinery.
Yes. Because of its high heat rating and tinned copper (which resists the vibration and heat of a motor housing), 14 AWG SIS is an excellent choice for internal motor lead connections. For even higher flexibility in motor applications, some engineers prefer our SRML Silicone wire.
The two main differences are heat and flexibility. SIS is rated for 125°C, while THHN is limited to 90°C. Additionally, SIS features Tinned Copper and XLP insulation, which is more flexible and "dead-soft" compared to the stiffer PVC/Nylon jacket of THHN, making SIS much easier to route in tight control clusters.
Yes. Our 14 AWG SIS wire is fully certified to UL Type AWM Style 3173, ensuring it meets rigorous safety and performance standards for switchboard and control circuit applications.
Yes. XLP is a very tough, "ruggedized" insulation. Unlike standard rubber wire, SIS will not easily scrape or tear when being pulled through tight openings or vibrated against the sharp edges of a metal cabinet.
Yes. If you need a smaller gauge for signal wiring or a larger gauge for main power feeds, you can view specifications and shop our full SIS Switchboard Wire Collection here.
