The AV Automobile Low Voltage Line is a versatile cable specifically designed for the diverse low-voltage electrical systems in modern vehicles. Constructed with a stranded copper conductor, this wire provides excellent flexibility and resistance to vibration-induced fatigue, a common issue in automotive environments. The conductor is insulated with a PVC compound that offers a balance of mechanical protection, electrical insulation, and cost-effectiveness, making it suitable for general automotive wiring applications.
The outer sheath of the AV line is made from a durable, flame-retardant PVC material that resists abrasion, oil, and moderate heat, with a rated operating temperature range of -40°C to +80°C. This makes it ideal for non-critical under-hood applications and interior wiring where extreme temperatures are not a primary concern. Available in a wide range of gauges (from 24 AWG to 12 AWG) and colors, the cable allows for easy circuit identification and compliance with automotive wiring standards.
Vibration Resistance: The stranded conductor and flexible insulation reduce the risk of conductor breakage due to continuous vehicle movement, ensuring long-term reliability.
Cost-Effective Solution: Offers dependable performance for standard automotive wiring at a competitive price, making it a popular choice for OEM and aftermarket applications.
Easy Identification: Color-coded insulation and sheath facilitate quick recognition of different circuits, simplifying installation and troubleshooting.
Compliance with Standards: Meets international automotive standards such as ISO 6722 and SAE J1128, ensuring compatibility with major vehicle manufacturers.
Balanced Performance: Provides adequate resistance to common automotive fluids (e.g., engine oil, coolant) while maintaining flexibility for easy routing through vehicle interiors.
The AV Automobile Low Voltage Line is commonly used in various automotive low-voltage systems, including:
Interior Wiring: Connecting dashboard instruments, door locks, power windows, and audio systems, where temperatures are moderate and flexibility is key.
Exterior Lighting: Used for headlights, taillights, and turn signals, which require reliable wiring that can withstand minor vibrations and weather exposure.
Accessory Systems: Ideal for aftermarket additions such as GPS units, dash cams, and seat heaters, which do not require extreme temperature resistance.
Heavy-Duty Vehicles: Suitable for non-critical wiring in trucks and buses, complementing higher-spec cables in less demanding areas.
Marine Applications: Can be used in marine vessels for low-voltage systems, provided it is protected from prolonged water exposure.
Q: What is the primary difference between AV and AEX wires?
A: AV wires are designed for general automotive use with a moderate temperature range (+80°C), while AEX wires are built for high-temperature environments (up to +150°C) near the engine.
Q: Can this wire be used in hybrid vehicles?
A: Yes, for low-voltage auxiliary systems such as lighting and infotainment. High-voltage systems in hybrids require specialized cables with higher ratings.
Q: How does the color coding work?
A: Standard colors follow automotive industry conventions (e.g., red for power, black for ground, green for signals), but always refer to the vehicle's wiring diagram for specific applications.
Q: Is the sheath resistant to battery acid?
A: The PVC sheath provides some resistance to battery acid, but immediate cleaning is recommended in case of spills to prevent long-term damage.
Q: What is the maximum current capacity for a 12 AWG AV wire?
A: A 12 AWG copper conductor can safely carry up to 25 amps in free air, but derate for bundled installations or continuous use to avoid overheating.
