6/4 w/ Ground Twisted XHHW-2 Aluminum Feeder Cable, Priority-Plex®, (Brown, Orange, Yellow, Gray, Green)

This #6 AWG 4-conductor Priority-Plex® assembly with an integrated #6 AWG Ground is an ultra-efficient feeder solution for 277/480V 3-phase, 4-wire systems. By factory-twisting the phases (Brown, Orange, Yellow), the neutral (Gray), and a #6 AWG Green ground, this system provides a complete circuit in a single bundle, maximizing efficiency for lighting circuits, small motor loads, and commercial sub-panels.

Why Choose Priority-Plex® #6 AWG with #6 Ground?

Even at smaller gauges like #6 AWG, pulling five individual conductors is inefficient. Priority-Plex® technology eliminates the "nesting" and tangling that occurs with loose wires. The twisted geometry ensures that the entire bundle moves as a single unit, which lowers the coefficient of friction and helps prevent insulation damage during tight turns in the conduit run.

• Full-Sized Ground Support: This configuration uses a #6 AWG Green ground, matching the phase conductor size. This provides a robust, low-impedance ground path that exceeds minimum NEC requirements for many circuits, ensuring maximum safety.

• Rapid Installation: One reel replaces five. This reduces setup time, requires fewer jack stands, and allows a single installer to manage the pull with ease.

• 480V Phase Identification: Permanent, factory-colored insulation (Brown, Orange, Yellow, Gray, Green) provides instant identification. This removes the labor of field-taping and minimizes the risk of phase-rotation or grounding errors.

• Rugged XHHW-2 Performance: The XLPE (Cross-linked Polyethylene) jacket is tougher than standard PVC (THHN), offering high resistance to moisture and heat (rated 90°C), which is essential for long-term reliability.

Common Applications

• 480V Lighting Circuits: Ideal for high-bay LED lighting and parking lot lighting feeders.

• Small Motor Loads: Powering 3-phase fans, small pumps, and industrial shop equipment.

• Commercial Sub-Panels: Supplying secondary distribution for remote offices or mechanical rooms.

• EV Charging: Serving as the supply for Level 2 charging stations where aluminum is specified for cost savings.

Technical Note: When terminating #6 AWG aluminum, ensure you use AL9CU-rated mechanical or compression connectors. Even at this smaller size, it is critical to wire-brush the conductor and apply an approved antioxidant joint compound to ensure long-term connection integrity. Always verify your conduit fill requirements for a 5-conductor twisted bundle.
