12 AWG GPT Primary Wire
This 12 AWG GPT primary wire is built for low-voltage automotive circuits such as lighting, accessories and general rewiring. The stranded copper conductor and black PVC insulation meet the GPT trade designation for standard vehicle use. It is suited for professional installers and DIY owners working on 12 V systems. The 100 ft spool provides enough length for multiple runs without splicing.
Installation notes
The flexible stranded core routes easily through tight cavities and around sharp bends. Strip the PVC cleanly with a 12 AWG stripper to avoid nicking strands, then crimp or solder terminals rated for the same gauge. A common mistake is using solid-wire connectors, which can loosen on stranded conductors. Ensure the 60 V rating covers the intended circuit voltage before energising.
60 V voltage rating
The single specification that determines fit is the 60 V rating printed on the jacket. Circuits exceeding this level require a higher-voltage wire type. The GPT designation, 12 AWG gauge and stranded copper construction are fixed attributes of this spool. Buyers needing a different voltage rating, gauge or insulation material should select an alternative product.

Questions about this item
How can I verify the 12 AWG stranded copper conductor is performing correctly after installation?
Check for secure connections at both ends, confirm voltage drop across the 100 ft length stays within acceptable limits for 60 V circuits, and ensure the black PVC insulation shows no damage or overheating during operation.
What comes in the package and what additional items might be needed for a typical automotive wiring job?
The package contains one 100 ft spool of 12 AWG GPT primary wire with black PVC insulation and stranded copper conductor; you will need to purchase connectors, terminals, heat shrink, and appropriate crimping tools separately.
Which version of this wire should I choose if I need a different gauge or colour for a 60 V automotive circuit?
This listing is specifically the 12 AWG black version; other gauges or colours would be separate product listings with their own part numbers, so select the exact AWG size and jacket colour required for your circuit design.
