Thermostat Wire 18/10 18AWG 10-Conductor Copper ETL CL2 250ft eastwire

Description

Product Overview

Eastwire’s 18/10 thermostat wire is engineered for demanding low‑voltage applications where reliability and safety are paramount. Constructed from solid copper conductors, the cable delivers superior conductivity and reduced signal loss compared with stranded alternatives. Ten individual 18‑gauge conductors are bundled within a durable brown PVC jacket, providing both flexibility for routing and resistance to abrasion, UV exposure, and moisture. The cable is ETL‑listed as a CL2‑rated power‑limited circuit cable, meaning it meets stringent fire‑safety standards for indoor and outdoor use, making it suitable for HVAC control, security system wiring, home automation, and other low‑voltage installations up to 30 V. Each roll supplies 250 ft (76.2 m) of cable, offering ample length for large projects or multiple runs without the need for frequent splicing.

Usage

This thermostat wire excels in environments where both indoor and outdoor performance are required. Installers can use it to connect thermostats, fire alarm panels, access control devices, and low‑voltage lighting controls in residential, commercial, and industrial settings. The brown PVC jacket blends discreetly with typical building aesthetics while providing protection against sunlight, temperature fluctuations, and mechanical wear. Because the cable is CL2 rated, it can be run through conduit, raceways, or directly mounted on walls and ceilings without compromising fire safety. Its 18‑gauge size balances current‑carrying capacity with ease of handling, allowing tight bends around corners and through tight spaces. Whether you are wiring a new HVAC system, upgrading a security network, or setting up a smart home automation hub, this cable offers the versatility and durability needed for long‑term operation.
