8000 Series Aluminum Alloy Conductor Type XHHW-2 Metal Clad(MC)Cable



If it should be directly buried in the earth, MC cable with PVC sheath is an optimal choice. Maximum voltage rating for XHHW-2 applications is 600 V.

- Nominal voltage:600V.
- 8000 series aluminum alloy conductor.
- Cross-linked Polyethylene (XLPE) Insulated Singles Rated XHHW-2.
- The insulated conductors and a bare ground are assembled together.
- An aluminum alloy interlocked armor.
- PVC sheath is optional.
- Meets or exceeds industry requirements of UL44 and UL 1569 or other standards required by Customers.
