Applications and Features:

APPLICATION
Southwire SIMpull THHN® Aluminum Wire & Cable with Alumaflex® Brand conductors are primarily used in conduit and cable trays for services, feeders and branch circuits in commercial or industrial applications as specified in the 2011 National Electrical Code. When used as Type THHN or T90 Nylon conductor is suitable for use in dry locations at temperatures not to exceed 90°C. When used as Type THWN-2 or TWN75, conductor is suitable for use in wet or dry locations at temperatures not to exceed 90°C or not to exceed 75°C when exposed to oil or coolant. Voltage for all applications is 600 volts. This cable should be installed without application of pulling lubricant.
