Hookup wire is not labeled for directionality but it is directional. Even stranded wire, each strand is directional, so you better have them all lined up right.Most cables, even high end cables, are not labeled for directionality, most fuses are not labeled for directionality but they are all directional. Some cables like AudioQuest and AntiCables are labeled with arrows. These cables must be "controlled for directionality" during manufacture.
The wire in transformers, internal speaker wire, internal wiring of all electronics, the wire in capacitors, even hookup wire - they're all directional.
Power cords? Yup, they're directional, even the stranded ones which are most. Also HDMI cables. House wiring too. All wire is directional for the reason I already explained. Obviously I'm referring to wires drawn through a die, not cast wires, if there is such a thing, or copper traces.
