Power Cable 600Volt Single Conductor Copper, Lead Free Ethylene Propylene Rubber (EPR) insulation RHH/RHW-2 USE-2 Cross-Linked/Thermoset Chlorinated Polyethylene (CPE-TS) Jacket

Construction:
- Conductor:Class B compressed stranded tinned copper per ASTM B33 and ASTM B8
- Binder Tape:Mylar Tape
- Insulation:Lead Free Ethylene Propylene Rubber (EPR) Type RHH/RHW-2 USE-2
- Overall Jacket:Lead Free & Silicone-Free Cross-Linked/Thermoset Chlorinated Polyethylene (CPE-TS) Jacket
Applications and Features:
Southwire’s 600 Volt power cables are suited for use in wet and dry areas, conduits, ducts, troughs, trays, direct burial, aerial supported by a messenger, and where superior electrical properties are desired. These cables are capable of operating continuously at the conductor temperature not in excess of 90°C for normal operation in wet and dry locations, 130°C for emergency overload, and 250°C for short circuit conditions. For uses in Class I, II, and III, Division 2 hazardous locations per NEC Article 501 and 502. Sunlight and oil resistant.
