Applications
Used for secondary distribution and underground service at 600 volts or less, either direct burial or in ducts.

Construction
Concentric stranded or compressed 8000 (8176-H24) aluminum conductors, crosslinked polyethylene insulation. Insulated conductors surface printed, neutral triple yellow striped. Two phase and one neutral conductor twisted together (LH lay) to produce the triplex cable configuration, or parallel if so specified. Black neutrals may be specified if desired.

Standards
Secondary URD triplex conductor 600V cable meets or exceeds the following ASTM specifications.

• B-800 8000 Series Aluminum Alloy Wire for Electrical Purposes
• B-801 Concentric-Lay-Stranded Conductors of 8000 Series Aluminum Alloy for Subsequent Covering or Insulation.
• B-901 "Compressed round stranded Aluminum Conductors using single input wire construction".
• Secondary UD triplex conductor 600V cable meets or exceeds all applicable requirements of ICEA S-105-692.
• UL Standard 44 for Type RHH or RHW-2
• UL standard 854 for Type USE-2.

Options

• Cable in Duct (CIC)
• Abrasion Resistant

Ampacity
90ºC conductor temperature, 20ºC ambient, RHO 50, 100% load factor for three conductor triplex with neutral carrying only unbalanced load. Technical data for cable with solid black neutral is identical to yellow extruded stripe data. All yellow extruded stripe cable is XLP insulation. To determine correct ampacity by conductor size, please consult the National Electric Code, latest edition.
