8 AWG / 3 Conductor (Reduced GND incl.)Tinned Copper with Color Coded EPR Insulation, Unshielded and a BLACK CPE Jacket. Rated 2000V UL 44, MSHA , this Flexible Portable Cord is designed for fixed, stationary applications. Type G-GC by Tele-fonika
Class K stranding according to ASTM B174 (172), is a AWM strand count making up individual conductors. For example, a 12AWG conductor with Class K stranding will consist of 65 strands of 30AWG copper wire.
Polyurethane (PUR) is a halogen-free and self-extinguishing thermoplastic polymer with high memory properties. This material is notch, abrasion, oil and ozone resistant as well as flexible particularly in colder temperatures. Ideal for continuous flexing applications in cable carrier. For other jacket types, see Types of Cable Jackets.
Polyvinyl chloride (PVC)
Polyvinyl chloride (PVC) is a widely used synthetic plastic polymer for both cable jackets and insulation. Relatively inexpensive with good resistance to oils, moisture, sunlight, heat abrasion and weathering. Flame retardant and ideal for direct burial.
Machine Tool Wire (MTW)
Machine Tool Wire, denoted as “MTW” is a listing from UL for the wiring of general purpose curcuits, machine tools and internal wiring of control panels covered under UL standard 1063. To read more about Machine Tool Wire (MTW), see Overview of Machine Tool Wire (MTW)?
Appliance Wiring Material (AWM)
Appliance Wiring Material, denoted “AWM” is a certification issued by UL for wiring which is commonly used for general purpose wiring circuits, internal wiring of appliances, electrical cabinets or machines.
