Application & Features

Southwire SIMpull® THHN/THWN-2 copper conductors are primarily used in conduit and cable trays for services, feeders, and branch circuits in commercial or industrial applications as specified in the National Electrical Code® and other applicable codes and standards. Voltage for all applications is 600 volts. SIMpull® THHN/THWN-2 copper conductors are designed to be installed without the application of a pulling lubricant. These conductors have multiple ratings depending upon the product application. Allowable temperatures are as follows:
- THHN or T90 Nylon- Dry locations not to exceed 90°C
- THWN-2- Wet or dry locations not to exceed 90° C or locations not to exceed 75°C when exposed to oil
- TWN75- Wet locations not to exceed 75°C
- MTW- Wet locations or when exposed to oil at temperatures not to exceed 60°C or dry locations not to exceed 90°C (with ampacity limited to that for 75°C conductor temperature per NFPA 79)
- AWM- Dry locations not to exceed 105°C only when rated and used as appliance wiring material

FEATURES
- Sunlight resistant #8 AWG and larger
- Gasoline and Oil Resistant II
- CT Rated 1/0 AWG and Larger
- VW-1 All Sizes
- FT-1 All Sizes
- AWM- Sizes 14 through 6 AWG
- MTW- Stranded Constructions Only
- RoHS Compliant
- LEED v4.1 Materials & Resources Credit MRc6; PBT (Lead Content Below 300 ppm Threshold)
