SPEC 44103
4/C CU 2000V EPDM/CPE Type W Industrial Grade Cable 90°C. MSHA Approved
Flexible Copper conductors, Ethylene Propylene Diene Monomer (EPDM) insulation, Single Layer Chlorinated Polyethylene (CPE) Jacket
Construction:
- Conductor:Bare, soft drawn, annealed, flexible, rope-lay stranded copper per ASTM B3/B172
- Separator Tape:Non-conducting tape applied between the conductor and insulation to facilitate stripping
- Insulation:Ethylene Propylene Diene Monomer (EPDM). Color coded black, white, red, green
- Fillers:Paper fillers applied as needed to round the cable core
- Reinforcement Binder:Reinforcing binder with twine applied over the core
- Jacket:Black, flame resistant, thermosetting Chlorinated Polyethylene (CPE)
Applications and Features:
Southwire Type W cable is a heavy-duty industrial cable for use in flexible, portable, and extra-hard usage applications per Article NEC 400. Suitable for continuous submersion in water – ideal for submersible pumps. Also suitable for use in light to medium-duty mining applications. Sunlight and oil resistant. Highly flexible and easy to work with in cold conditions. Not for use as perminant building wiring. Meets FT-5 Flame Test.

* Inductive reactance based three current-carrying conductors.
† Ampacity based on NEC 400.5(A)(2) and is for a single isolated cable in air operated at an ambient temperature of 30°C connected to utilization equipment so that only three conductors are current-carrying. If 4 conductors are current-carrying, derate by 0.80 per NEC Table 400.5(A)(3)
