3/C or 4/C CU 600V XLPE XHHW-2 ARMOR-X PVC Cable With Three Grounds VFD Cable

3/C or 4/C CU 600V XLPE XHHW-2 ARMOR-X PVC Cable With Three Grounds VFD Cable

Description: 

Type MC-HL Control Cable 600Volt Copper Conductors, Cross Linked Polyethylene (XLPE) Insulation XHHW-2 Continuous Corrugated Welded Armor (Armor-X), Polyvinyl Chloride (PVC) Jacket with 3 Bare CU Ground

Application: 

Southwire's 600 Volt Type MC-HL Armor-X® control 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, 250°C for short circuit conditions, and -50°C for cold bend. For uses in Class I, II, and III, Division 1 and 2 hazardous locations per NEC Article 501, 502, and 503.

Construction: 

• Conductor:7 strands class B compressed tinned copper per ASTM B33 and ASTM B8
• Insulation:Cross Linked Polyethylene (XLPE) XHHW-2, 30 Mils thick for all cable sizes
• Grounding Conductor:3 Class B compressed stranded bare copper ground per ASTM B3 and ASTM B8
• Filler:Polypropylene filler on cables with 5 or less conductors
• Binder:Polyester flat thread binder tape applied for cables with more than 5 conductors
• Armor:Continuous Corrugated Welded Armor (Armor-X)
• Overall Jacket:Polyvinyl Chloride (PVC) Jacket
