Southwire 55671323 Automotive Primary Wire 12 Awg 100 Ft

Product Description

The SOUTHWIRE 55671323 is a 12 AWG automotive primary wire rated for surface vehicle electrical systems. This 100-foot spool is insulated with PVC and carries a 60-volt rating, making it a standard choice for low-voltage DC wiring in automotive and light-duty vehicle applications. The black insulation provides easy color coding when wiring multi-circuit systems. The 19/25 strand construction delivers flexibility for routing through tight spaces, conduit, or along chassis rails. Licensed automotive electricians and experienced installers use this wire for accessory wiring, trailer hookups, lighting circuits, and similar vehicle electrical work.

This wire is suited for surface vehicle electrical systems where a flexible, color-coded primary conductor is required. The 100-foot spool length covers most single-run accessory installs without splicing. The PVC outer insulation resists abrasion and common automotive fluids encountered in engine bays and undercarriage routing. The 12 AWG gauge handles moderate current loads typical of lighting, fans, and accessory circuits. The black color is commonly used for ground or negative runs but works in any color-coded wiring plan chosen by the installer.

Key Features

• 60-volt rated insulation suitable for 12-volt and 24-volt DC vehicle electrical systems
• PVC outer insulation resists abrasion and common automotive fluids
• Black color for consistent color-coded wiring practices
• Maximum operating temperature of 85 degrees F

Compatibility

Designed for use in surface vehicle electrical systems as an automotive primary wire for accessory, lighting, and general low-voltage DC wiring applications.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a qualified automotive electrician or experienced vehicle wiring technician. Disconnect the vehicle battery before beginning any wiring work to prevent shorts or accidental circuit energization. Secure wire runs with appropriate automotive clamps or loom to prevent chafing against metal edges. Follow applicable SAE and vehicle manufacturer wiring standards for connector selection, fusing, and circuit protection.
