OMEGA[®] twisted/shielded thermocouple wire is ideal for systems sensitive to induced voltages and electrical noise. The wire conductors are insulated with color-coded PVC, then twisted with a tin/copper drain wire. Next, an aluminized polyester tape is wrapped around the wires, followed by a final layer of PVC coating. The wire is UL listed for Power Limited Tray Cable (PLTC) applications. 

**Wire is shielded and supplied with an integral tin/copper drain wire.** 

_**Note:** Overbraiding wire invalidates UL rating._ 

**Shown smaller than actual size.**
