CU 600V XLPE Insulation PVC Jacket XHHW-2. CT Rated - Sunlight Resistant - For Direct Burial - Silicone Free
Type TC-ER Control Cable 600 or 1000 Volt Copper Conductors, Cross Linked Polyethylene (XLPE) Insulation XHHW-2 Polyvinyl Chloride (PVC) Jacket, Control Cable Conductor Identification Method 1 Table 2. CT Rated - Sunlight Resistant - For Direct Burial - VW-1 Rated - Silicone Free
Application & Features
Southwire’s 600 or 1000 Volt Type TC-ER control cables are suited for use in wet and dry areas, conduits, ducts, troughs, trays, direct burial, aerial supported by a messenger, and where superior electrical properties are desired. These cables are capable of operating continuously at the conductor temperature not in excess of 90°C for normal operation in wet and dry locations, 130°C for emergency overload, and 250°C for short circuit conditions. The jacket acts as gas/vapor-tight polymeric sheath that is extruded over the core per Sections 501.15(D) and 501.15(E) of the NEC, however when these cables are used in a hazardous location, they may need to be sealed further as described in more detail in the NEC. For uses in Class I, II, and III, Division 2 hazardous locations per NEC Article 501 and 502. Constructions with 3 or more conductors are listed for exposed runs (TC-ER) per NEC 336.10. VW-1 Rated\ - Sunlight Resistant - For Direct Burial - Silicone Free.

* Ampacities based upon 2023 NEC Table 310.16 and do not take into account the overcurrent protection limitations in NEC 240.4(D) of 15 Amps for 14 AWG CU, 20 Amps for 12 AWG CU, and 30 Amps for 10 AWG CU (independent of the conductor temperature rating and stranding if size is present in table). Also, see NEC sections 310.15 and 110.14(C) for additional requirements.
* Ampacities have been adjusted for more than Three Current-Carrying Conductors.
