Applications and Features:

Southwire’s Halo-Flex™ 600V TC-ER-HL or 1000V TC-ER 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. A gas/vapor-tight polymeric sheath is extruded over the core. Rated for use in Class I, II, or III, Division 1 & 2, Zone 1 & 2, hazardous locations per NEC Article 501, 502, and 503. Listed for exposed runs in hazardous locations (TC-ER-HL) per NEC 336.10. - 40°C cold bend and cold impact. HALO-FLEX ™ CPE jacket is made with patented SIM Technology. Cable can be installed in conduit without the aid of lubrication. PATENT www.patentsw.com

    *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.
    *Ampacities have been adjusted for more than Three Current-Carrying Conductors.
