Description

This 500 AWG 3 conductor tray cable with ground is a general purpose 600 volt non shielded control cable designed for power, control and lighting circuits. It is suitable for a broad range of commercial and industrial uses.

The Exposed Run (ER) rating on this cable means it meets crush and impact testing requirements, and is therefore tough enough to run outside a cable tray without additional protection, unlike standard tray cables which must be installed inside a conduit, raceway or other protection.

Applications:

In free air, raceways, and direct burial
In wet or dry locations
Approved for direct burial
Class 1, Division 2 industrial hazardous locations per NEC

Standards:

UL 44 Type XHHW-2
UL 1581 VW-1
IEEE 1202
Rated for UV/sunlight resistance
* UL 1277 Type TC-ER for 3 or more conductors
