THHN/THWN, 600V, Type TC Power Cable

Application and Description

THHN/PVC, type TC Power Cable is used to supply power to motors, or for connection to other power devices in industrial settings. Primary installations include cable trays, raceways, and outdoor locations where supported by a messenger wire. Type TC Power Cable is listed for direct burial and for use in Class 1, Division 2 hazardous locations and Class 1 control circuits. This cable may be used at temperatures not to exceed 75°C in wet locations and 90°C in dry locations.
