Southwire’s RWU90 is designed for direct earth burial (with protection as required by the inspecting authority). For service entrance above or below ground. The minimum recommended installation temperature is minus 40°C (with suitable handling procedures). Maximum conductor temperature is 90°C. Note: Standard black is sunlight resistant and marked "SR". Standard coloured insulation is not sunlight resistant. SIMpull® technology on sizes #8 and larger. Cable can be installed in conduit without the aid of lubrication.
Cond. Size | Conductor Number | Cond. Strands | Diameter Over Conductor (in) (cm) | Inner Layer Thickness (mils) (mm) | Approx. OD (in) (cm) | Copper Weight (lbs/1000') (kgs/km) | Approx. Weight (lbs/1000') (kgs/km) | |
