Engineered for heavy-duty power distribution, this Priority-Plex® twisted feeder cable is designed to streamline complex wire pulls in residential and commercial environments. By pre-assembling two phase conductors and a dedicated neutral into a single twisted unit, it eliminates the labor-intensive process of managing multiple reels and manual spinning, ensuring a cleaner, faster installation.

Why Choose 1/3C Twisted XHHW-2 Aluminum Feeder?

This 3-conductor assembly (Black, Red, and White) provides a high-capacity solution for secondary service entries. The Priority-Plex® configuration keeps the conductors securely bundled without the added diameter or weight of a traditional jacketed cable, allowing for easier movement through tight spaces.

  • Priority-Plex® Design: The twisted configuration prevents conductor crossovers and tangling, facilitating a smooth, single-source pull.

  • Integrated Color Coding: Features a Black and Red phase conductor with a dedicated White neutral for rapid, error-free termination.

  • Superior XHHW-2 Insulation: Cross-linked polyethylene (XLP) provides excellent resistance to heat, moisture, and environmental stress.

  • Optimized Aluminum Alloy: Built with AA-8000 series aluminum to offer a lightweight, cost-effective alternative to copper with long-term reliability.

This 1 AWG, 3-conductor assembly is designed for high-capacity feeder applications. It is most commonly used for residential service entrances and commercial sub-panel feeds. Because it uses XHHW-2 conductors, it is exceptionally durable and rated for installation in conduit, both above ground and buried in wet locations.

Priority-Plex® is a value-added manufacturing feature where the three conductors are pre-twisted (cabled) together at the factory.

  • Simplified Pulling: Instead of wrestling with three separate, heavy reels that might tangle, you pull from a single reel.
  • Reduced Friction: The twisted profile provides a smaller surface area of contact against the conduit wall, which lowers pulling tension.
  • Optimized Conduit Space: The factory twist ensures the wires are seated in a tight, helical bundle, preventing the "birdcaging" that often happens when pulling parallel wires through bends.

At the 1 AWG size, aluminum provides a significant cost saving over copper without sacrificing performance for feeder circuits.

  • XLPE Insulation: XHHW-2 uses Cross-Linked Polyethylene. Unlike the PVC used in THHN, XLPE is a "thermoset" material that won't melt or flow under high temperatures or overcurrent conditions.
  • Wet/Dry Performance: It maintains a full 90°C rating in both wet and dry environments. This is a critical upgrade over older wire types that required derating in damp conditions.
  • Corrosion Resistance: Modern 8000 Series aluminum alloy is highly resistant to oxidation and is much more flexible than the utility-grade aluminum used in the past.

According to NEC Table 310.16, the ampacity for 1 AWG Aluminum depends on the temperature rating of your lugs and equipment:

  • 60°C Terminations: 85 Amps
  • 75°C Terminations: 100 Amps
  • 90°C Terminations: 115 Amps

⚠️ PRO TIP: Most modern electrical panels use 75°C rated lugs. Therefore, for most code-compliant designs, you should treat this cable as a 100 Amp feeder.

This assembly follows the standard 120/240V or 120/208V color code:

  1. Black: Phase A (Hot)
  2. Red: Phase B (Hot)
  3. White: Neutral

Because these are XHHW-2 conductors, the colors are typically "impregnated" into the insulation or printed with highly visible longitudinal stripes to ensure easy identification at both ends of the run.

Yes we offer XHHW-2 Aluminum Wire in a single conductor from 14 AWG to 1000 MCM in multiple colors by the foot. Shop our single conductor XHHW-2 Collection here.
