I need simple 10-awg insulated wire that can be passed through water and not corrode. I'm having trouble finding types of insulation to use. What would be my best bet?

Waterproof insulated wire is a type of wire that is designed to resist water and moisture. It differs from regular wire by having an additional layer of insulation that protects the wire from any potential water damage.
The main benefit of using waterproof insulated wire is that it can withstand exposure to water and moisture, making it ideal for use in outdoor or wet environments. It also helps to prevent any potential electrical hazards that may be caused by water damage to the wire.
Most waterproof insulated wires will have a special coating or layer of insulation that is visibly different from regular wire. You can also check the specifications or labeling of the wire to see if it is designed for use in wet or outdoor environments.
Yes, waterproof insulated wire can be used for both indoor and outdoor applications. It is designed to withstand exposure to water and moisture, making it suitable for a variety of environments.
Yes, there are different types of waterproof insulated wire available, including single-conductor, multi-conductor, and shielded wires. The type of wire needed will depend on the specific application and environment it will be used in.
