Applications

As flame-retardant three or four conductor power cables rated 600V, 90°C in wet or dry locations. Specifically approved for installation in cable trays per Article 336 of the NEC. Type TC cable is also approved for use in Class I and II, Division 2 hazardous locations. Cables may be installed in open air, in ducts or conduits, in tray or trough, or direct buried.

Construction

Class B stranded uncoated copper conductor, FR-XLPE flame-retardant cross-linked polyethylene insulation, surface print phase identification. Three or four insulated conductors twisted with a Class B stranded uncoated copper grounding conductor and suitable fillers,  cable tape, helical copper tape shield, PVC jacket overall, surface printed
