Engineered for extreme durability and continuous heavy-duty power distribution, this 2 AWG 4-Conductor Type W Portable Power Cable is built to withstand relentless jobsite punishment. Rated for continuous 2000V operation, this industrial-grade trailing cable features fully flexible tinned copper conductors insulated with high-dielectric Ethylene Propylene Rubber (EPR) and encased in a heavy-duty Chlorinated Polyethylene (CPE) thermoset outer jacket.
Whether powering heavy mining machinery, mobile compressors, high-capacity temporary generators, or 4-wire power distribution panels, this cable delivers unyielding mechanical impact resistance, extreme cold flexibility down to -40°C, and superior defense against oil, heat, flame, and sunlight.
Extra-Flexible High-Strand Tinned Copper: Built with 259 fine strands of soft-drawn tinned copper (ASTM B33) per conductor, giving you maximum flexibility around tight corners while preventing copper oxidation and corrosion at lugs and terminations.
Ultra-Rugged Thermoset CPE Jacket: Heavy-duty Chlorinated Polyethylene (CPE) outer sheath provides extreme protection against severe mechanical impact, sharp rock abrasion, crushing, fuels, solvents, and aggressive chemicals.
Extreme Weather & UV Protection (-40°C to +90°C): Highly resistant to ozone, UV sunlight, weather, open flames (FT1/FT5), and shallow water immersion. It stays completely pliable in sub-zero freezing cold down to -40°C while delivering full 90°C wet/dry thermal protection.
2000V Heavy-Duty Power Capacity: High-grade Ethylene-Propylene Rubber (EPR) insulation delivers high dielectric strength and reliable 2000V power density without thermal breakdown.
Color-Coded Conductors: Features color-coded conductors (Black, White, Red, Green) for fast, error-free phase, neutral, and ground identification during complex panel hookups.
Anti-Slipping Core Construction: Built with rubber fillers and a heavy-duty internal binder tape that locks the inner conductors to the outer jacket. This prevents internal slippage, conductor twisting, and sleeve bunching when dragging the cable across job sites or pulling under high tension.
Voltage Rating: 2000 Volts (Type W)

4-Wire Temporary Power Distribution: Feeding high-amperage 3-phase temporary power panels, portable generators, and transformers requiring a dedicated neutral and equipment ground.
Mining & Heavy Industrial Equipment: Powering mobile mining machinery, heavy conveyors, shuttle cars, and plant equipment where bare grounding conductors are not required.

Multi-conductor 2/4C Type W cable is a heavy-duty 2000V portable power cable designed for high-amp four-wire temporary power distribution, dynamic portable equipment, industrial pumps, and mobile machinery. Common uses include 3-phase generator tails with dedicated neutral and ground, heavy motor leads, shipyard power, and temporary jobsite distribution panels.
Per NEC Table 400.5(A)(2) and manufacturer specifications, a 2 AWG 4-conductor Type W cable rated at 90°C carries a maximum continuous ampacity of 152 Amps in free air (based on a 30°C ambient temperature with standard multi-conductor derating applied). Always check derating factors and local electrical codes for your specific setup.
Yes. Type W cable features an extra-heavy-duty CPE jacket and EPR insulation rated for shallow water immersion, as well as wet or dry environments from -40°C to +90°C. It handles continuous UV sunlight, ozone, oils, and aggressive jobsite chemicals without breaking down.
No. Under NEC Article 400, multi-conductor flexible portable power cords are restricted to temporary power distribution and equipment leads. Unlike single-conductor Type W (which carries a dual RHH/RHW-2 building wire rating), multi-conductor Type W cannot be pulled through permanent building conduit or raceways.
While both are multi-conductor flexible cords, they are built for different duty levels:
2 AWG 4-Conductor Type W uses 259 fine strands of tinned copper per conductor for extra flexibility around tight corners. With a minimum bending radius rating of 6 times the overall outer diameter (1.44" OD), this cable requires a minimum bending radius of 8.64 inches (219.6 mm) for safe field routing.
The four conductors inside a 2/4C Type W cable are color-coded Black, White, Red, and Green for clear circuit identification. Per UL and CSA standards, the Green conductor is designated specifically for equipment grounding purposes.
Wire America supplies heavy-duty Type W portable power cable directly to electrical contractors, plant operators, equipment OEMs, rental fleet managers, and event power technicians. When you source through us, you get:
