The wire is suitable for use in wet or dry locations at temperatures not exceeding 90°C and is Dual-Rated for 600V or 1000V. 1/0AWG and larger are approved for cable tray use.

CONDUCTOR:
Soft drawn bare copper in compressed stranding.

INSULATION:
Abrasion, heat and moisture resistant cross-linked polyethylene insulation (XLP), low coefficient of friction. It is available in ten solid colors.

AMP RATING:
@ 90°C - 25 Amps


All values are nominal and subject to correction. *Ampacities for not more than three conductors in raceway or cable or earth (directly buried), based on ambient temperature of 30°C per Table 310.16 of the National Electrical Code. **Overcurrent protection shall not exceed 15 amps for #14 AWG, 20 amps for #12 AWG, and 30 amps for #10 AWG per NEC.

Our #14 AWG Copper XHHW-2 Building Wire is a high-performance electrical conductor designed for power distribution. It features a soft drawn bare copper conductor with robust cross-linked polyethylene (XLP) insulation, offering excellent resistance to abrasion, heat, and moisture. This wire is suitable for a wide range of electrical installations, ensuring reliable and safe power delivery.

The acronym XHHW-2 breaks down the key characteristics of the wire's insulation and performance: - X: Cross-linked polyethylene (XLPE) insulation. - HH: High Heat-resistant. - W: Water-resistant. - -2: Indicates that the wire is rated for 90°C in both wet and dry locations, signifying enhanced performance over previous versions.

This #14 AWG Copper XHHW-2 wire is primarily used for power distribution in various electrical systems. Its common applications include: - Services, feeders, and branch circuit wiring as specified in the National Electrical Code (NEC). - Installation in conduit or other recognized raceways. - Use in both residential, commercial, and industrial construction projects.

The key specifications for our #14 AWG Copper XHHW-2 Building Wire are: - AWG Size: #14 AWG. - Conductor: Soft drawn bare copper in compressed stranding. - Insulation: Abrasion, heat, and moisture resistant cross-linked polyethylene (XLP). - Voltage Rating: Dual-rated for 600V or 1000V. - Temperature Rating: 90°C in wet or dry locations. - Ampacity @ 90°C: 25 Amps. - Overcurrent Protection: Not to exceed 15 amps per NEC for #14 AWG.

Yes, #14 AWG Copper XHHW-2 wire is specifically designed and rated for use in both wet and dry locations. Its advanced cross-linked polyethylene (XLP) insulation ensures consistent performance and safety at temperatures not exceeding 90°C in either environment.
