Frequently Asked Questions
What temperature ratings apply to this wire, and how do they affect ampacity?
This wire carries three ampacity ratings tied to its temperature rating: 55 A at 60°C, 65 A at 75°C, and 75 A at 90°C. The applicable rating depends on the lowest-rated termination or device in the circuit per NEC requirements.
Is this wire easy to pull through conduit?
The 19-strand construction increases flexibility over solid wire, and the nylon outer jacket reduces friction against conduit walls, allowing installation without pulling lubricant in most runs.
Can this wire be used outdoors or in wet locations?
Yes. The THWN-2 dual rating qualifies this wire for wet locations, including outdoor conduit runs and underground installations where conduit is used. The maximum operating temperature in wet locations is 90°C.
What are typical applications for 6 AWG THHN wire in commercial and residential work?
Common applications include feeder and branch circuits, service entrance wiring, subpanel feeds, HVAC and air conditioning units, electric ovens, large lighting installations, hot tubs, and jacuzzis. It is used in conduit or cable trays per NEC guidelines.
What standards and certifications does this wire meet?
This wire meets UL-83, UL-1063, UL-758, CSA C22.2 No. 75, NEMA WC70/ICEA S-95-658, ASTM B3/B8/B787, and Federal Specification A-A-59544. It is also RoHS compliant per comparable distributor listings.
What is the physical construction of the insulation and jacket on this wire?
The conductor is bare (uncoated) copper. It is insulated with color-coded PVC (30 mils thick) that is heat- and moisture-resistant and flame-retardant, with a nylon outer jacket (approximately 5-6 mils) that provides gasoline and oil resistance and aids conduit pulling.
