SPEC 45001
SIMpull XHHW-2® CU 600/1000V XLPE Insulation. CT Rated - Sunlight Resistant
Power Cable 600 or 1000 Volt Single Conductor Copper, Cross Linked Polyethylene (XLPE) with Simpull technology insulation XHHW-2 - Sunlight Resistant - FT4/IEEE 1202 350kcmil and larger.
Construction:
- Conductor:Class B compressed stranded bare copper per ASTM B3 and ASTM B8
- Insulation:Cross Linked Polyethylene (XLPE) with Simpull technology Type XHHW-2
Applications and Features:
Southwire’s 600 or 1000 Volt power cables are suited for use in wet and dry areas, conduits, ducts, troughs, trays, 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 resistant - FT4/IEEE 1202 on 350kcmil and larger. Rated for 1000 lbs./FT maximum sidewall pressure.

| 3/0 | 1 | 2.2 | 1342 | 0.064 | 0.078 | 0.042 | 200 | 225 |
*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.
*Inductive Reactance is based on non-ferrous conduit with one diameter spacing center-to-center.
