"Designed for 600V secondary power distribution, this #2-2 Duplex URD cable (Everett) is the "Heavy-Duty" choice for 120V underground applications. Featuring one insulated phase conductor and one neutral, it utilizes sunlight-resistant XLPE (Cross-Linked Polyethylene) insulation and is rated for both direct burial and duct installations. Built with 1350-H19 Series Aluminum, it offers superior mechanical strength and high ampacity for demanding residential and municipal projects."
The #2 AWG size provides the maximum current capacity in a standard duplex configuration. Its 1350-H19 series aluminum construction is specifically chosen to withstand the high tension of long pulls through underground conduit or rocky trenches.
600V Power Rating: Delivers consistent performance in wet or dry locations up to 90°C.
Direct Burial Rated: Engineered to be buried directly in the earth without the need for expensive conduit runs.
Sunlight Resistant: The black XLP insulation is UV-stabilized to prevent degradation where the cable is exposed above ground.
Streamlined Installation: The Duplex configuration is optimized for single-phase 120V circuits, reducing material waste and installation time.

URD stands for Underground Residential Distribution. It is a specialized electrical cable engineered for secondary power distribution in underground systems.
Despite the name, URD is the industry standard for moving power from a transformer to any structure—including commercial and municipal buildings—via underground trenching.
Key Technical Specs:
Common Configurations:
Single Conductor: A standalone insulated lead used for dedicated neutrals, grounding, or custom multi-wire pulls in conduit.
Duplex: 1 Insulated Conductor + 1 Neutral (120V circuits / Street lighting).
Triplex: 2 Insulated Conductors + 1 Neutral (Standard 240V residential service).
Quadruplex: 3 Insulated Conductors + 1 Neutral (3-Phase commercial service).
Contractors choose URD when they need a durable, moisture-resistant cable that can survive the compression and chemical environment of being underground for decades. It is an excellent choice for utility service drops, irrigation pumps, and outdoor lighting projects.
Yes, Aluminum Duplex URD is specifically engineered for Direct Burial. The conductors are insulated with Cross-Linked Polyethylene (XLPE/XHHW-2), which is highly resistant to moisture, heat, and soil chemicals. While conduit is not required by most codes for the entire run, it is often recommended where the cable emerges from the ground to protect against mechanical damage.
The ampacity for 2 AWG Duplex URD Cable is:
Duct / Conduit 120 Amps
Direct Bury 165 Amps
*Ampacity: 90°C conductor temperature, 20°C ambient temperature, RHO 90, 100% load factor. Single and Quadruplex based on 3/C. Neutral wire
carries unbalanced load only. Reference NEC article 310.15 for NEC installations.
It comes down to the requirements of the load. If you are only powering a 120V circuit (like a series of street lights), Duplex is the most cost-effective option because you aren't paying for a second or third insulated conductor that you won't use. For standard 240V home service, you would need Triplex; for 3-phase commercial service, you would need Quadruplex.
We stock a full range of single conductor, duplex, triplex & quadruplex URD cables including 6 AWG URD, 4 AWG URD, 2 AWG URD, 2/0 URD & 250 MCM URD You can browse our complete inventory and view detailed specifications for each size in our Full Aluminum URD Collection here.
