UL 3287 XLPE 105°C 600V High Temperature Wire is a single-core insulated wire with a copper conductor and cross-linked polyethylene (XLPE) insulation. Its documented design parameters are 600 V and 105°C, with solid or stranded conductor configurations and a listed size family from 9 AWG to 32 AWG. This construction is suitable for internal equipment wiring where a higher-voltage XLPE hook-up wire is required.
For a quotation, provide the required AWG, solid or stranded conductor choice, insulation colour, length, routing and equipment environment. TEBAOFLEX will confirm the final configuration before production.
What is UL 3287 XLPE wire?
UL 3287 wire is a 600 V, 105°C single conductor identified by its XLPE insulation construction. Cross-linked polyethylene provides the insulation layer over the copper conductor, making this a practical option for appliance, panel, control and electrical-equipment wiring. Search requirements such as 105°C XLPE wire, 600V hook-up wire, cross-linked polyethylene appliance wire and single-core equipment wire describe the main purchasing intent covered by this product family.

Applications for 600V XLPE hook-up wire
UL 3287 XLPE wire is intended for internal wiring in appliances, electrical equipment, panel assemblies, control devices and other protected installations where the selected conductor size, voltage and temperature requirements align with the final construction. It is not a substitute for a multi-core control cable, an outdoor power cable or a wet-location cable.
How to specify UL 3287 wire
- Select the required AWG size and solid or stranded conductor form.
- State the insulation colour and any finished outside-diameter requirement.
- Provide the installation temperature, voltage and routing condition.
- Send the required length and packaging preference for quotation.
Solid or stranded conductor selection
A solid conductor can suit fixed internal routing where conductor shape retention is useful. A stranded conductor can be selected when easier routing and handling flexibility are priorities during equipment assembly. The final choice must match the current requirement, terminal, joining method, finished diameter and equipment design.
Usage limits and engineering review
The listed 105°C and 600 V values are product ratings, not approval of a complete machine or installation. Do not assume suitability for direct burial, continuous flexing, outdoor exposure, immersion, unprotected abrasion or a specific flame, oil or chemical test unless those conditions have been separately reviewed and confirmed.
For a 300 V XLPE alternative, compare the UL 3266 XLPE high-temperature wire. Explore related products in the high-temperature and specialty cable range.
Frequently asked questions
What is the voltage rating of UL 3287 wire?
The documented rated voltage is 600 V.
What temperature can this XLPE wire be specified for?
The documented rated temperature is 105°C. TEBAOFLEX should confirm the complete equipment environment for the selected configuration.
What conductor sizes are available?
The documented family spans 9 AWG to 32 AWG. The detailed table shows listed stranded constructions from 10 AWG to 32 AWG.
Can I request a solid or stranded copper conductor?
Yes. The product data identifies solid and stranded conductor forms. Include your conductor preference and application details in the enquiry.
Is UL 3287 wire intended for outdoor or continuous-flex use?
The documented application is protected internal equipment wiring. Outdoor exposure, continuous movement, burial and immersion require a separately evaluated cable construction and should not be assumed from the voltage and temperature ratings.
