Default Legal to use this wire for home wiring?

There's not much use for that wire in a house, although you may be able
to use it to re-wire damaged "high" temperature appliances like ranges,
water heaters, heating elements, HID light fixtures, etc. Those
appliances usually use 105C or 150C wire at the most, so 200C would be
OK. If you sell it, I'd keep at least 10 feet of it.
