High Temperature Electrical Cable

The national electrical code nec has a letter system that makes it easy to quickly identify a wire s capabilities.

High temperature electrical cable.

High temperature twist on wire splicing connectors shown with set screw rated to 300 f these connectors are an excellent choice for use in high temperature applications such as hid lighting and electric heat. Thhn is the most commonly used wire in conduit and cable trays for services in commercial or industrial applications. It has a layer of fiberglass fabric and mica tape around each wire. The insulation on this cable withstands high heat applications such as ovens and furnaces.

Products include braided braidless silicone srml tggt and mg types. The entire cable is wrapped in a layer of fiberglass fabric and mica tape and then covered. Some common codes include thhn xhhw and thw. Get free shipping on qualified heat resistant wire or buy online pick up in store today in the electrical department.

Use unshielded cable in applications where signal interference is not a concern. High temper cables and wires typically are known to have a temperature rating above 125 c. Choosing the right product for high heat environments reduces unnecessary replacements and avoids downtime. For example mgt 1000 high temp wire and cable are used with.

The wires are silver or nickel plated for corrosion resistance. High temperature wire including thermocouple wire is stocked since many internal and external wiring applications are used in environments exceeding 150 c and even up to 200 c making it an excellent heat resistant wire we carry high temperature wire in a wide variety of materials and configurations to suit every application. These cables are a specialized family of high temperature wire and cable for applications that need to sustain a continuous temperature flash heat or extreme resistance.
