Editor note; Hook-Up Wire is a general category and could apply to many different types of cable.

Hook-up Wire: Small wires used to hook up instruments or electrical parts, usually 12 AWG and smaller. The wire used in coupling circuits together.
Hook-up Wire may be solid or stranded and normally insulated, but not shielded.
Basically Hook-up Wire could be almost any wire found sitting around in a lab.
Any wire will do as long as the attenuation per foot is not to great, so any signal gets attenuated to much or the cable over heats because of the wire resistance.





Current carrying capacity of hook-up wire
Hook-up Wire Current Capacity

The table shows the preferred wire gauges used for hook-up wire
The table provides maximum current for both copper wire and aluminum wire in both free air and confined spaces.
Read more on Current capacity of wires, for all the wire gauges.

Also refer to Equipment Wire Selection, or Equipment Cable Assemblies, both part of the notes on how to design an equipment chassis.

Military Standards;
MIL-DTL-16878: General Specification for Insulated Electrical Wire

MIL-DTL-16878/3: PVC Insulated Electrical Wire [3000 Volts & 105C]
MIL-DTL-16878/10: Polyethylene Insulated Electrical Wire [600 Volts & 75C]
MIL-DTL-16878/14: Crosslinked, Modified Polyethylene Insulated Electrical Wire [600 Volts & 125C]
MIL-DTL-16878/15: Crosslinked, Modified Polyethylene Insulated Electrical Wire [1000 Volts & 125C]
MIL-DTL-16878/16: Crosslinked, Modified Polyethylene Insulated Electrical Wire [3000 Volts & 125C]
MIL-DTL-16878/17: Polyvinyl Chloride Insulated Polyamide Jacket Electrical Wire [600 Volts & 105C]
MIL-DTL-16878/18: PVC Insulated Polyamide Jacket Electrical Wire [1000 Volts & 105C]
MIL-DTL-16878/19: PVC Insulated Polyamide Jacket Electrical Wire [3000 Volts & 105C]
MIL-DTL-16878/33: Polyethylene Insulated with Polyamide Covering Electrical Wire [Abrasion Resistant]
MIL-DTL-16878/36: Crosslinked Polyolefin Insulated Electrical Wire [Low smoke]
MIL-DTL-16878/37: Ethylene-Propylene Diene Elastomer Insulated Electrical Wire [600 Volts & 150C]
The MIL-DTL-16878 specification covers unshielded wire for hookup and lead wiring of electrical and electronic components and equipment
so that minimum size and weight are consistent with service requirements.

MIL-W-76: Wire and Cable, Hookup, Electrical, Insulated, General Specification.
Synthetic-resin insulated Single-conductor cable for temperature between -55 and +90 degrees centigrade.
The conductor may be copper or copper-clad steel at almost ever wire gauge from 30AWG to 00.
Copper-clad steel wire has more than twice the DC resistance than copper wire does, but would be stronger.
