Applications
Southwire Type MC Cable is primarily used for services, feeders, and branch circuits as specified in the 2008 National Electric Code. Type MC cable with Type XHHW-2 conductors may be used in wet or dry locations at temperatures not to exceed 90°C. Voltage rating for XHHW-2 conductors is 600 volts.

SPECIFICATIONS
Southwire Type MC cable with Type XHHW-2 conductors meets or exceeds UL standard 44, UL standard 1569, Federal Specification J-C-30B, ICEA S-66-524, and requirements of the National Electric Code.

CONSTRUCTION
Southwire Type MC cable is constructed with Type XHHW-2 conductors and a bare equipment grounding conductor. Conductors are TRIPLE E AA-8000 series aluminum alloy compact stranded. A binder tape is wrapped over the conductors with interlocked aluminum tape applied over the assembly. Individual conductors are color coded per ICEA S-58-679, Method 3, Table 2 (Single color compounds with surface printing). Also available with THHN conductors.
