Do you have the specs on it from Hammond?What measurements have you made on this wire to determine it's electrical characteristics - at the intended 60hz power supply application?
Have you done any metallurgy tests on the wire?
How about the plastics used in the insulation?
As echoed by Triode Kingdom, I would suggest you spend more time on learning how these circuits actually work and how to improve them based on proven electrical engineering knowledge.
You are wasting your time second guessing the electrical engineers at Hammond and Triad who have many years of theory and practical engineering knowledge over you.
I have used many, many Hammond transformers for over 20 years, both professionally and as a hobbyist. I have never once received a defective unit nor have I ever found any problem with the factory attached wiring.

Because a real electrical engineer knows that even used wire pulled out of a trash can is still quite usable depending of course on the insulation condition. Aged copper and can always be restored!
It's the audiophool that believes in the sonic qualities aged copper for better or worse.
excellent post. intelligent..
Lately I have been getting my hookup wire out of Belden multi-conductor cable scraps. I have about 20 feet of 39 conductor 22awg cable.
Good hookup wire, and I mean good as in insulation that does not creep when soldered, is getting expensive. Scrap multi-conductor cable can be found very cheap and it;s good wire inside.
