Bramec 13823 12 Awg Stranded Copper Wire Red 500 Ft

Product Description

The BRAMEC 13823 is a 12 AWG stranded copper wire on a 500-foot spool, finished in red insulation for polarity and circuit identification in low-voltage and line-voltage wiring applications. Stranded construction provides flexibility during routing through conduit, junction boxes, and tight equipment enclosures where solid wire would kink or fatigue. This wire is a working-stock item for licensed electricians, HVAC technicians, and plumbers running control or power circuits in residential and light commercial installations. The red jacket aids in consistent color-coding practice across multi-conductor runs and panel terminations.

This wire is suited for use in control wiring, equipment power feeds, and branch circuit work where a flexible 12 AWG conductor is required. Common applications include HVAC equipment hookups, thermostat sub-base wiring, pump motor feeds, and general electrical rough-in work. The 500-foot spool length supports full-job or multi-job use without frequent restocking, making it practical for service vans and shop inventory alike.

Key Features

• 12 AWG stranded copper construction for flexibility and conductivity
• Red insulation jacket for straightforward circuit and polarity identification
• 500-foot spool length reduces mid-job restocking
• Stranded design resists kinking and fatigue during installation in conduit or tight enclosures
• Sold as a single spool per unit

Compatibility

Designed as a general-purpose 12 AWG stranded copper conductor suitable for use in residential and light commercial electrical and HVAC control wiring applications where a flexible red-jacketed wire is specified.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed electrician or qualified HVAC technician in accordance with the National Electrical Code (NEC) and applicable local codes. De-energize all circuits at the breaker or disconnect before terminating or splicing wire. Use appropriate wire strippers for 12 AWG conductors and confirm all terminations are secure and properly rated for the circuit ampacity. Do not exceed the ampacity rating of the wire as determined by the NEC installation method and conduit fill requirements.
