Construction:

Conductor:Flexible stranded tinned copper per ASTM B33
Insulation:Polyvinyl Chloride (PVC)

Colors: Other Colors available; including Green with 2x15% +/- 5% Tolerance Yellow Extruded Stripe. Other stripes available.

Extruded stripes limited to sizes 4/0 AWG and smaller. 250Kcmil available in solid colors only.

Applications and Features:

Southwire’s Machine Flexible Power cables are suited for use in wet and dry areas, conduits, ducts, troughs, 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 75°C for normal operation in wet and dry locations, 90°C for emergency overload, and 150°C for short circuit conditions. 1/0 AWG & Larger rated for CT USE
