Specification

14 XHHW-2 Solid Copper Building Wire

Allowable Ampacity for 14 XHHW-2 Copper Building Wire : 15 Amps at 60ºC / 15 Amps at 75ºC / 15 Amps at 90ºC

Applications:

XHHW is a multi-purpose electrical wire with cross-linked high heat water-resistant insulation. The most common applications include raceways for branch circuit wiring, conduits, services, and feeders. It is also used as a building wire. XHHW 2 is suitable for industrial applications due to its toughness and excellent resistance to chemicals. The electrical wire is suitable for temperatures up to 90°C in dry applications and 75 °C in wet applications, with a voltage rating of 600 volts.
