Belden Inc. 8918005100 18 Awg Stranded Pvc Wire Green

Product Description

The BELDEN INC. 8918005100 is an 18 AWG stranded PVC-insulated hook-up wire in green. Stranded construction provides flexibility for routing through enclosures, panels, and conduit runs where solid wire would be too rigid. The PVC jacket resists moisture, abrasion, and common shop chemicals, making it appropriate for control wiring inside HVAC units, electrical panels, and light commercial equipment. Electricians and controls technicians use this wire for low-voltage signal runs, grounding leads, and general-purpose internal wiring tasks where a color-coded conductor is required for circuit identification.

This wire is suited for residential and light commercial applications including control panel wiring, equipment grounding conductors, and appliance hookup. The green color coding follows standard industry convention for equipment grounding conductors, helping technicians identify conductors quickly during installation and troubleshooting. It is typically sold by the foot or roll and is cut to length on the job to minimize waste.

Key Features

• 18 AWG stranded conductor for flexibility in tight wiring runs
• PVC insulation resists moisture, abrasion, and common chemicals
• Green color coding follows standard equipment grounding conductor convention
• Suitable for general-purpose hook-up and control panel wiring
• Stranded construction reduces fatigue cracking from vibration or repeated flexing

Compatibility

Designed as a general-purpose 18 AWG stranded hook-up wire suitable for use in control panels, HVAC equipment wiring harnesses, electrical enclosures, and light commercial appliance wiring applications.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed electrician or qualified controls technician in accordance with applicable NEC requirements for the intended circuit type. De-energize all circuits before making connections and verify voltage is absent with a meter before handling conductors. Use appropriately rated terminals, connectors, and conduit fittings for the installation environment. Do not exceed the ampacity rating appropriate for 18 AWG wire as defined by the NEC for the specific installation conditions.
