Product Description
Applications:
Type RHH or RHW-2 or USE-2 conductors are used with conduit as specified in the National Electrical Code 1 . May also be used as underground service entrance cable, for direct burial, at conductor temperatures not to exceed
90°C. When used as RHH, conductor temperatures shall not exceed 90°C in dry locations. When used as RHW-2 or USE-2, conductor temperatures shall not exceed 90°C in wet or dry locations. Voltage rating for RHW-2 or RHH or USE-2 conductors
is 600 volts.
Specifications:
Type RHH or RHW-2 or USE-2 conductors meet or exceed UL Standard 44 (for RHH or RHW-2), UL Standard 854 (for USE-2), Federal Specification A-A-59544, and requirements of the National Electrical Code.
Construction:
Type RHH or RHW-2 or USE-2 aluminum conductors are AlumaFlex TM AA-8000 series aluminum alloy, compact stranded. Insulation is an abrasion, moisture, heat, and sunlight resistant black cross-linked polyethylene (XLP).
