Built for high-capacity electrical distribution, this Priority-Plex® twisted feeder cable is the ideal solution for large-scale commercial and residential projects requiring reliable 175-Amp service. By factory-twisting two phase conductors and a dedicated neutral into a single assembly, this 3/0 AWG cable eliminates the logistical complexity of handling separate reels, significantly reducing setup time and labor costs during the pull.
This 3-conductor assembly (Black, Red, and White) is designed for professionals who prioritize efficiency without compromising on safety. The Priority-Plex® configuration ensures the conductors remain in a tight, consistent twist, which minimizes surface contact with conduit walls and allows for a much smoother pulling experience compared to loose conductors.
Priority-Plex® Design: Eliminates the need for manual on-site twisting or paralleling, preventing conductor crossovers and ensuring a balanced pull.
Streamlined Phase Identification: Features color-coded Black and Red phase conductors and a dedicated White neutral for fast, accurate termination at the panel.
High-Performance XHHW-2 Insulation: The rugged cross-linked polyethylene (XLP) insulation is engineered to withstand high temperatures and moisture-heavy environments.
Efficient AA-8000 Aluminum: Provides the necessary ampacity for heavy electrical loads while offering a lightweight profile that is easier to maneuver than copper.
Conductor Size: 3/0 AWG
Number of Conductors: 3 (Twisted)
Color Code: Black, Red, White
Ampacity: 155 Amps at 75°C / 175 Amps at 90°C (NEC Table 310.16)
Voltage: 600V
Insulation: Cross-linked Polyethylene (XLP), Type XHHW-2
Max Temp: 90°C (Wet/Dry)
Conductor Material: AA-8000 Series Aluminum Alloy
Standards: UL 44, UL 854, ASTM B800, B801, Federal Spec A-A-59544
Heavy-Duty Sub-Panels: The primary choice for feeding 175-Amp sub-panels in commercial buildings, industrial warehouses, and large estates.
Main Service Entrance: Ideal for routing high-amperage power from the meter bank to the main distribution panel in conduit-based systems.
Institutional Facilities: Frequently utilized in schools, hospitals, and government buildings for reliable, high-capacity branch circuit wiring.
Large-Scale Conduit Pulls: The twisted geometry reduces pulling tension, making it the preferred cable for long-distance runs through PVC or rigid conduit.
Technical Note: All values are nominal and subject to industry tolerances and manufacturer corrections. Specifications are subject to change without notice. It is the buyer’s responsibility to verify that all materials meet the specific requirements of the project and comply with local electrical codes.

This 3/0 AWG (pronounced "three-aught"), 3-conductor assembly is a heavy-duty feeder cable designed for high-amperage power distribution. It is a staple in residential and commercial electrical systems, most frequently used for 200A residential service entrances and main sub-panel feeds in commercial buildings. The XHHW-2 rating makes it exceptionally versatile, allowing for installation in conduit in both wet and dry locations, including underground service laterals.
Priority-Plex® is a specialized manufacturing process where the conductors are pre-twisted (cabled) together at the factory.
At the 3/0 gauge, aluminum offers an optimal balance of high ampacity and cost-effectiveness. Using copper for a 200A run would be significantly heavier and more expensive.
According to NEC Table 310.16, the ampacity for 3/0 Aluminum depends on the temperature rating of the equipment terminations:
⚠️ PRO TIP: Most modern main breakers and distribution panels are rated for 75°C. Therefore, in most commercial applications, this cable is treated as a 155 Amp feeder. However, for residential service entrance applications (120/240V, single-phase), NEC 310.12 allows this gauge to be used for 200A services under the "83% rule," provided it carries the entire load of the dwelling.
This assembly follows the standard 120/240V or 120/208V color code for easy identification:
The colors are typically embedded in the XLPE insulation or clearly striped, ensuring permanent identification that won't rub off during a difficult pull through a long conduit 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.
