GROTE 12 AWG Primary Wire 100 ft

This GROTE 87-6012 primary wire is a single-conductor, 12 AWG stranded copper cable with PVC insulation rated for 60 V. It comes in a 100 ft orange spool and carries the GPT trade designation for general-purpose automotive use. The wire is supplied new and is intended for low-voltage electrical circuits.

Suited for low-voltage automotive wiring tasks

Installers who need a 12 AWG stranded copper conductor with PVC insulation for 60 V automotive circuits will find this wire matches the specification. Buyers who require a higher voltage rating, a different conductor gauge, a multi-conductor cable, or a jacket colour other than orange should look at alternative products.

60 V voltage rating is the deciding specification

The wire is rated for 60 V, so it must only be used on circuits that do not exceed this voltage. Using it on higher-voltage systems would exceed the insulation rating and create a safety hazard. Confirm the circuit voltage before installation.

Questions about this item

Will the PVC insulation on this 12 AWG GPT wire need replacement from engine heat or oil exposure?

The PVC jacket on this GPT primary wire resists typical under-hood temperatures and automotive fluids; inspect it during routine service and replace only if cracking or abrasion appears.

What stops me from pushing more than 60 V through this 12 AWG stranded copper conductor?

The wire carries a 60 V rating; exceeding that voltage risks insulation breakdown even if the copper could carry the current.

Does the 100 ft orange GPT spool get warm or draw noticeable power when lighting circuits run all day?

At 60 V the copper conductor runs cool under normal lighting loads; any warmth signals an undersized gauge for the actual current drawn.
