UL 1007	(300V 105°C) and UL 1015 (600V 105°C) are both considered "hookup wire."  When I purchase these in larger sizes they come dual (as MTW) or triple marked (plus THW.)

The 1/0 X-Flex I have here is marked "MTW or THW or UL 1232/1284/1338/10269" (and also as TEW)

I ask for tinned, stranded wire (better corrosion resistance for marine and battery applications) but I don't actually know whether the AWM numbers actually specify this or not.
