THHN wire Building wire electric wire AWG 10

Specifications

THHN AWG 10
600 Volt
Copper Conductor
Thermoplastic Insulation/Nylon Sheath Heat, Moisture, Gasoline, and Oil Resistant

APPLICATION           Suitable for use as follows:

THHN or THWN-2* conductors are primarily used in conduit and cable trays for services, feeders, and branch circuits in commercial or industrial applications as specified in the National Electrical Code 2

 

When used as Type THHN, conductor is suitable for use in dry locations at temperatures not to exceed 90°C

 

When used as Type THWN-2*, conductor is suitable for use in wet or dry locations at temperatures not to exceed 90°C or not to exceed 75°C when exposed to oil or coolant

 

When used as Type MTW, conductor is suitable for use in wet locations or when exposed to oil or coolant at temperatures not to exceed 60°C or dry locations at temperatures not to exceed 90°C (with ampacity limited to that for 75°C conductor temperature per NFPA 79)

 

Conductor temperatures not to exceed 105°C in dry locations when rated AWM and used as appliance wiring material. Voltage for all applications is 600 volts

 

STANDARD & REFERENCES

THHN or THWN-2* or MTW (also AWM) meets or exceeds all applicable ASTM specifications, UL Standard 83, UL Standard 1063 (MTW), Federal Specification A-A-59544, and requirements of the National Electrical Code.

 

CONSTRUCTIONS

THHN or THWN-2* or MTW copper conductors are annealed (soft) copper, insulated with a tough heat and moisture resistant polyvinyl chloride (PVC), over which a nylon (polyamide) or UL-listed equal jacket is applied

Available in black, white, red, blue, green, yellow, brown, orange, and gray; some colors standard, some subject to economic order quantity

Conductor sizes 2 AWG and larger listed and marked sunlight-resistant in black only.
