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 National Electrical Code and other applicable codes and standards. Voltage for all applications is 600 volts. SIMpull® THHN/THWN-2 aluminum conductors are designed to be installed without the application of a pulling lubricant. These conductors have multiple ratings depending on the product application. Allowable temperatures are as follows:
- THHN or T90 Nylon- Dry locations not to exceed 90°C
- THWN-2 Wet or dry locations not to exceed 90°C or locations not to exceed 75°C when exposed to oil
- TWN75 Wet locations not to exceed 75°C

FEATURES - Sunlight Resistant- Sizes #2 and larger
- Oil and Gasoline Resistant II
- CT- Sizes 1/0 AWG and larger
- VW-1 All Sizes
- FT1 All Sizes
- T90 Nylon on all sizes
- TWN75 All sizes
- National Electrical Code, NFPA
- NEMA WC-70 Construction Requirements
- RoHS Compliant

    *Ampacities based upon 2023 NEC Table 310.16 and do not take into account the overcurrent protection limitations in NEC 240.4(D) of 15 Amps for 14 AWG CU, 20 Amps for 12 AWG CU, and 30 Amps for 10 AWG CU (independent of the conductor temperature rating and stranding if size is present in table). Also, see NEC sections 310.15 and 110.14(C) for additional requirements.
    * Inductive Reactance is based on non-ferrous conduit with one diameter spacing center-to-center.
