MC 2/3 Cable, Stranded Copper
$12.15 / ft.
WesBell MC (Metal Clad) cable is comprised of multiple Thermoplastic High Heat-Resistant Nylon-Coated (THHN) wires, including a green THHN wire used as a ground. Since all of the conductors are insulated with THHN, the cable can be used outdoors and in conduit. Our MC cable also has an aluminum metal clad jacket that acts as a conduit for indoor applications requiring much less effort to install.
The MC Cable 2/3 consists of bare copper THHN and Thermoplastic High-Heat Water-Resistant Nylon-Coated (THWN) wires. The nylon coating insulates and protects the wires from any wet conditions or extreme temperatures. An aluminum jacket then wraps around these THHN and THWN wires for added protection.
The MC 2/3 cable consists of three conductors and one green ground wire. The wires in this cable are an American Wire Gauge (AWG) size 2, making them the largest gauge wires of all our available MC cables. Our MC cables can support up to 600 volts and can withstand up to 90°C in dry conditions.
This MC cable is perfect for indoor and outdoor applications, and it’s the go-to cable for commercial, industrial and residential projects. Because of its durable aluminum jacket, you can use it in wet and dry conditions.
