Copper XHHW-2 600V/1000V LSZH XLPE Insulation Cable
Specification:
2 XHHW-2 Copper Building Wire
Description:
Copper SIMpull XHHW-2/RW90 conductors are primarily used in conduit, cable trays, or other recognized raceways for services, feeders, and branch circuit wiring, as specified in the National Electrical Code (NEC). These conductors are rated for wet and dry locations, with a maximum operating temperature of 90°C. The voltage rating is 600V or 1000V for all sizes. This cable is designed for easier installation without the need for pulling lubricant. RW90 is suitable for open wiring and use in raceways (except cable troughs and ventilated flexible cableways) in wet or dry locations, as per the Canadian Electrical Code. Conductor sizes 8 AWG and larger are rated for 600V or 1000V single conductor copper with XLPE insulation and SIMpull technology for easier pulling.

Common Uses of 2 AWG Copper XHHW-2 Wire:
115A branch circuits in commercial and industrial buildings (75°C rating)
135A feeder wiring in raceways and conduit where 90°C ampacity is permitted
Main power feeders in commercial, industrial, and residential service panels
Motor leads for high-power industrial equipment
HVAC system wiring for heavy-duty air conditioning and heating units
Backup generator connections for emergency power distribution
Cable tray installations where NEC permits XHHW-2 conductors
APPLICATIONS:
LSZH XHHW-2 cables are primarily used for power distribution in conduit or other recognized raceways for servicesfeeders,and branch circuit wiring as specified in the National Electrical Code. The cable is zero halogen, no smokesuitable for use in wet or dry locations at temperatures not exceeding 90'c and is dual-rated for 600V or 1000V1/0AWG and larger are approved for cable tray use.
