never really dealt with heater elements, so I'm not sure what temperature rating i should use on the wires? :dunce:

What is the recommended wire type to use for an industrial immersion heater? This will end up in a nuclear plant so they have a 'no PVC spec' we have to meet

we are using SIS cable on everything else (motors & control) on this system if that's acceptable?
quick search looks like TGGT is the 'standard' wire to use on heaters...?
