APPLICATIONS • For use primarily in residential wiring including branch circuits for outlets, switches, etc • May be installed in both exposed and concealed work in normally dry locations • May be installed in air voids of masonry block or tile walls where these walls are not subject to excessive moisture or dampness • May be installed in locations with temperatures up to 90°C but with the ampacity limited to that of 60°C conductors
• Added Circuit: For use primarily in residential wiring for branch circuits supplying outlets located in bedrooms and other areas • Has two seperate neutrals so that one cable can be used to run two circuits when sharing of a neutral is not allowed
CONDUCTORS • Solid conductors: Soft, uncoated copper per ASTM-B3 • Stranded conductors: Uncoated copper per ASTM-B3 and ASTM-B8
CONDUCTOR INSULATION AND JACKET • Color coded PVC (polyvinyl chloride), rated 90°C dry
• Added Circuit: Color coded PVC rated 90°C: black, white, red and white with red stripe. • Insulated conductors also jacketed with clear nylon (polyamide)
GROUNDING CONDUCTOR • Soft, uncoated copper per ASTM-B3
ASSEMBLY • Two conductorconstructions have the insulated conductors laid parallel. Ground wire is wrapped with paper and laid parallel between the insulated conductors. The entire construction is wrapped with a paper separator before applying the jacket • Three conductor constructions have the insulated conductors twisted together. Ground wire is wrapped with paper and twisted together with the insulated conductors.
JACKET • 30 mil thick PVC (polyvinyl chloride) jacket applied over the complete assembly • 14-2 & 14-3 w/ground:white •12-2 & 12-3 w/ground: yellow •10-2 & 10-3 w/ground: orange •8 AWG and larger: black
• Added Circuit: 14-2-2 w/ground: white 12-2-2 w/ground: yellow
INDUSTRY STANDARDS • UL 83 (insulated conductors) File No. E15119 • UL 719 Non-Metallic Sheathed Cable File No. E9810 • ASTM-B3 • ASTM-B8 • Federal Specification A-A-59544 • NFPA70: National Electrical Code®
