"A heavy-duty 10 AWG 4-conductor tray cable engineered for dedicated 3-phase power delivery with a neutral, motor leads, branch circuits, and high-draw equipment feeds. Designed to handle substantial electrical loads in a compact round profile, this 600V Type TC-ER cable (Direct Burial & Sunlight Resistant) provides rugged mechanical protection for demanding plant infrastructure without requiring continuous conduit installation."
When wiring industrial machinery, heavy motors, or long power runs, physical durability equals job-site longevity. The 10/4 VNTC balances high current capacity with heavy-duty construction. Constructed with stranded copper conductors and heat- and moisture-resistant PVC/Nylon THHN/THWN-2 insulation inside a flame-retardant, UV-resistant PVC outer jacket, its compact round core maximizes containment space, handles tight turns effortlessly, and slashes installation labor.
Exposed Run (TC-ER) Certified: Fully code-listed to transit safely outside of protective cable trays or conduits in open-air spans directly to equipment enclosures or joist pull applications when properly supported.
Versatile Routing Approvals: Code-compliant for deployment in open-air trays, aerial applications supported by a messenger wire, pulled through raceways, structural conduits, or laid in deep under-floor ducts.
Direct Burial & Outdoor Rated: Built with a sunlight-resistant PVC outer jacket that permits direct underground trenching and exposed outdoor installation.
Flexible Stranded Conductors: Stranded bare copper conductors provide tight bend radii for effortless panel wiring while defending power and signal circuits against fatigue caused by nearby machinery vibration.
Conductor Configuration: 4 Conductors
Conductor Size: 10 AWG (7 Strands)
Conductor Material: Fully annealed bare copper (Class B compressed strand per ASTM B3 & B8)
Conductor Insulation: Heat and moisture resistant PVC with a Nylon jacket (Type THHN/THWN-2)

A 10/4 VNTC Tray Cable is engineered for 3-phase power distribution with a neutral, heavy branch circuits, motor control centers, and high-draw equipment feeds across commercial and industrial facilities. Its compact round profile allows smooth routing through cable trays, structural conduits, and outdoor raceways.
Following the ICEA Method 1, Table E-2 standard, the 4 conductors inside this cable are colored Black (1), Red (2), Blue (3), and Orange (4).
Yes. For installations near VFDs, power drives, high-voltage lines, or heavy machinery where electromagnetic interference (EMI/RFI) is a concern, we offer 10/4 Shielded VNTC Tray Cable featuring an overall shield. We also supply overall-shielded VNTC tray cables across various 10 AWG conductor counts—contact our team for custom cut lengths and factory reels.
Yes, absolutely. The dual-layer protection of the THHN/THWN-2 conductor insulation combined with the heavy-duty sunlight-resistant PVC jacket makes this cable fully approved for direct burial underground, as well as wet, dry, and outdoor tray installations.
"TC-ER" stands for Tray Cable - Exposed Run under the UL 1277 standard for Type TC cable. Unlike standard Type TC cables that must remain inside raceways or trays, TC-ER rated cables have passed rigorous crush and impact resistance testing, permitting them to extend continuously outside of cable trays to equipment or junction boxes without requiring conduit.
Yes. The black outer PVC jacket is explicitly rated as Sunlight Resistant per UL 1277, preventing the sheath from baking, cracking, or degrading under direct outdoor sunlight exposure.
Wire America supplies premium VNTC tray cable directly to contractors, systems integrators, panel builders, OEMs, and facility teams. When you source through us, you get:
