Southwire 56133023 10 Gauge Automotive Primary Wire 100ft

Product Description

The SOUTHWIRE 56133023 is a 10-gauge automotive primary wire designed for use in surface vehicle electrical systems. It carries a PVC outer insulation jacket rated for up to 85 degrees F and is constructed with a 19/23 strand count for flexibility and reliable current-carrying capacity. At 60 volts rated service, this wire is suited for standard low-voltage automotive and accessory circuits. The spool format delivers 100 feet of green-coded wire, making it easy to pull the length needed for a given run. Licensed automotive technicians, upfitters, and vehicle electricians are the primary installers.

This wire is intended for surface vehicle electrical system applications including original-equipment-style repairs, accessory installations, and trailer wiring. The green color coding assists with circuit identification during installation and future service. The 100-foot spool length accommodates both single-run jobs and multi-circuit installations without requiring a splice. It meets SAE standards applicable to automotive primary wiring.

Key Features

• 10-gauge conductor with 19/23 strand count for flexibility in tight routing paths
• PVC outer insulation rated to 85 degrees F for under-hood and chassis applications
• 60-volt rated for standard low-voltage automotive circuits
• Green color coding supports circuit identification and organized wiring layouts
• 100-foot spool minimizes the need for mid-run splices
• Meets SAE standards for surface vehicle electrical systems

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement and general-use primary wire for 12-volt and low-voltage surface vehicle electrical systems where 10-gauge SAE-rated wire is specified.

Installation Notes

Installation is typically performed by automotive technicians or vehicle upfitters following SAE wiring practices and applicable vehicle manufacturer guidelines. Disconnect the vehicle battery before beginning any wiring work to eliminate shock and short-circuit risk. Use the appropriate wire stripper for 10-gauge conductor and secure all terminations with rated connectors or solder-and-heat-shrink joints. Avoid routing wire near sharp metal edges or high-heat exhaust components without additional protective sheathing.
