About Wire and Cable

About Industry Designation for Cable Insulation

Use this general purpose cable to supply power to equipment.

SEOOW—600V AC

Use For: Outdoors, Power Supply
Flexible
Temperature Range: See table
Insulation: TPE Rubber

SEOOW cable has an oil-resistant outer and inner insulation, and water-resistant outer insulation. The TPE rubber insulation also withstands chemicals.

SOOW—600V AC

Use For: Outdoors, Power Supply
Ultra Flexible
Temperature Range:
Black: -40° to 190° F
Yellow: -55° to 220° F
Insulation: EPDM Rubber

Ultra-flexible cable is good for applications that require tight turns.

SOOW cable has an oil-resistant outer and inner insulation, and water-resistant outer insulation. The EPDM rubber insulation has good tensile strength.

Flame rated cable meets requirements for preventing the spread of flames based on a timed test. FT2 cable is suspended horizontally during testing.

High-Voltage Cable

Use For: Power Supply, Outdoors
Flexible
Temperature Range: -40° to 190° F
Insulation: EPDM Rubber

Often used in mining equipment, submersible pumps, and drilling rigs, this cable withstands 2,000 volts AC/DC. The EPDM insulation resists abrasion, so it can be pulled over rough surfaces without damaging the wires inside.

No-Conduit-Required Control Cable

Unshielded

Use For:
Unshielded: Automation
Double Shielded: Automation, Interference Shielding
Flexible
Temperature Range: -10° to 190° F
Insulation:
Outer: PVC Plastic
Inner: Nylon/PVC Plastic Blend

This cable meets TC-ER crush and impact requirements for exposed runs in cable carriers, so it can be used without conduit. It withstands periodic flexing and bending, sends signal and data to operate, measure, or regulate automated equipment. The PVC insulation resists oil. It’s flame rated FT4 to meet requirements for preventing the spread of flames based on a timed test with material mounted to a vertical tray.

Use unshielded cable in applications where signal interference is not a concern.

Power Cords

90° Elbow Plug × Wire Leads

NEMA 14-50 Plug

Connect equipment and devices to a power supply.

Cords with a NEMA 14-30 or 14-50 plug are often used to power electric vehicles. They have a high current rating.

Cords with a 90° elbow plug fit flush against a wall outlet, so they fit behind machinery or in areas where space is tight.

The insulation on STW and SJTW cords resists water.
