18-3C Thermostat Wire is a low-voltage cable designed for power limited circuits in various control systems. It features three solid copper conductors, each insulated with colored PVC, and is encased in a durable PVC outer jacket. This wire is commonly used for connecting thermostats to HVAC systems, as well as for bell, alarm, and signal systems.
The '18' in 18-3C refers to the wire's American Wire Gauge (AWG) size, indicating it is 18 gauge, a common thickness for low-voltage applications. The '3C' denotes that the cable contains three individual conductors within its outer jacket. This configuration is suitable for basic thermostat functions like heating, cooling, and fan control, or other systems requiring three connections.
This 18-3C Thermostat Wire is primarily used for power limited circuits in various control systems. Its applications include connecting thermostats, air conditioning units, heat pumps, bell and alarm systems, signal systems, doorbells, and remote control units. It is ideal for systems where the voltage does not exceed 300 volts.
The key specifications for this 18-3C Thermostat Wire are: - Conductor Gauge: 18 AWG - Number of Conductors: 3 - Conductor Material: Solid soft drawn copper, per ASTM B3 and B258 - Insulation Material: Heat and moisture resistant colored polyvinyl chloride (PVC) - Jacket Material: Heat, moisture, and sunlight resistant polyvinyl chloride (PVC) - Voltage Rating: Up to 300 volts - Temperature Rating: -20°C to +60°C
This 18-3C Thermostat Wire is rated for use in power limited circuits where the voltage does not exceed 300 volts. While many HVAC systems operate at a lower 24 volts AC, the wire itself is designed to safely handle up to 300 volts.
