| Application and Description | XHHW/PVC conductors are primarily used in conduit, cable tray or otder recongnized raceways for services, feeders, and branch circuit wiring as specified in tde National Electrical Code. XHHW/PVC conductors are sunlight resistant and may be used in wet or dry locations at temperatures not to exceed 90°C. Voltage rating for XHHW/PVC conductors is 600 volts |
| Cable Construction | |
| Conductor | Single copper conductor, stranded tinned annealed copper per ASTM B3 Class B stranding per ASTM B8 |
| Insulation | Flame-retardant, abrasion, heat, moisture and sunlight resistant Cross-Linked Polyetdylene (FRXLPE) |
| Jacket | Flame retardant, moisture and sunlight resistant PVC |
| Color | upon request, black is preferable |
| Technical Characteristics | - UL 44 - Thermoset-Insulated Wires and Cables. - UL 1685 - UL CT Flame Exposure Test. - UL 1581 - UL Flame Exposure Test (VW-1) - IEEE 383 (IEEE 1202/FT4 (2/0 AWG and larger) - Flame Test (70,000 Btu/hr Vertical Tray Test)). - ICEA S-95-658 (NEMA WC70) |
