Application & features
Southwire’s Type TC-ER, PLTC, FPL, and NFPL Control Cable are suited for use in dry and wet areas, troughs, trays, direct burial and where superior electrical properties are desired. These cables are capable of operating continuously at the conductor temperature not in excess of 90°C in dry locations, 105°C for emergency overload, and 250°C For uses in Class I, II, and III per NEC Article 725 and 760. Constructions with 3 or more conductors are listed for exposed runs (TC-ER) per NEC 336.10. Oil and sunlight resistant
