Applications: Type THHN/THWN-2 building wire is intended for general purpose applications as defined by the National Electrical Code (NEC). 6 AWG THHN-THWN-2 is permitted for new construction or rewiring for 600-volt applications. Applications requiring Type THHN or THWN-2, the conductor is appropriate for use in wet or dry locations at temperatures not to exceed 90°C or not to exceed 75°C in oil or coolants. Applications requiring Type AWM conductor is appropriate for use in dry locations at 90°C, or not to exceed 60°C in wet locations or where exposed to oils or coolants. Applications requiring Type AWM conductor is appropriate for use at temperatures to not exceed 105°C in dry locations. Most common building wire used often on sub-panels, hot tubs & jacuzzis.

Frequently Asked Questions
Q: What applications is the 6 AWG 19-Stranded THHN Black Copper Building Wire suitable for?A: The 6 AWG 19-Stranded THHN Black Copper Building Wire is suitable for general purpose applications as defined by the National Electrical Code (NEC), including new construction and rewiring for 600-volt applications. It can be used in both wet and dry locations and is commonly used for sub-panels, hot tubs, jacuzzis, and other electrical installations.
Q: What are the temperature ratings for this THHN wire?A: This THHN wire is rated for use at temperatures not to exceed 90°C in dry locations and 75°C in wet locations or where exposed to oils or coolants. Additionally, it can withstand up to 105°C in dry locations when used as an AWM conductor.
Q: Is the insulation on the 6 AWG THHN wire moisture and heat resistant?A: Yes, the insulation is made from high heat and moisture-resistant Polyvinyl Chloride (PVC), ensuring durability in various environmental conditions. The nylon outer jacket is also abrasion, moisture, gasoline, and oil resistant.
Q: What is the allowable ampacity for this building wire?A: The 6 AWG 19-Stranded THHN wire has an allowable ampacity of 55 Amps at 60°C, 65 Amps at 75°C, and 75 Amps at 90°C. This makes it suitable for a wide range of electrical loads.
Q: How is the construction of this wire different from standard wires?A: This wire features 19 strands of copper conductors made with annealed, compressed copper, providing flexibility and conductivity. Its nylon jacket and PVC insulation make it more durable compared to standard wires, which may not have the same level of resistance to heat, moisture, and chemicals.
