The wire comes on a reel and can be cut to suit your applications.

• Bend radius 10 times the cable diameter means it's very flexible and easy to use
• 16 AWG (American Wire Gauge) for standard use
• 20.4lbs maximum pull tension eases strain in tight spaces

• Machine prototypes
• Musical instruments
• HVAC (heating, ventilation, and air conditioning) applications

As this cable has flame-retardant properties, you can safely use it in places with a high risk of fire.

No – they're the same. A hook-up wire is also referred to as a lead wire because it conducts the movement of current from one electrical point to another. It can also be called an appliance wire.
