Southwire's triplex or paralleled 600 volt secondary UD cable meets or exceeds the following applicable ASTM specifications:
Conductors are stranded, compressed 1350-H19, H16, or H26 aluminum, insulated with vulcanized interlinked polyethylene (VIP 1 ), Southwire's cross-linked polyethylene. Neutrals are triple yellow extruded stripe. Cables with "YES" neutrals have sequential footage markers. Conductors are durably surface printed for identification. Two phase conductors and one neutral conductor are cabled together to produce the triplex cable configuration. Conductors are also available paralleled.
