AV Automotive Wire – PVC-Insulated Primary Cable for Vehicle Wiring Systems
AV wire is a standard automotive primary wire with PVC insulation, widely used in 12V/24V vehicle electrical systems. It is designed for general-purpose internal wiring in passenger cars, trucks, motorcycles, and light commercial vehicles. Manufactured to meet JASO D611 standards, AV wire is one of the most common choices for OEM and aftermarket vehicle harness assemblies.
The wire features a stranded bare copper conductor for flexibility and stable conductivity, paired with a polyvinyl chloride (PVC) insulation layer that offers good heat resistance, oil resistance, and abrasion resistance. AV wire is suitable for fixed wiring in dashboards, power distribution boxes, signal circuits, and lighting systems.
