UFB Cable (Underground Feeder Cable)
Underground Feeder Cable (UF-B) is a rugged and durable cable commonly used in tough electrical wiring environments. Its wide range of features and characteristics make it a reliable—and authorized—choice in many underground burial applications, as well as some indoor ones where moisture or corrosion are concerns.
It’s one of the most popular and versatile brands of wire available, though it’s also the most expensive. It can be used in conduit, outdoors, underground, you name it. Because it deals with tougher terrains than THHN or Romex, UFB wire comes in larger sizes, most commonly 6/3 and 8/3 and is often called ‘underground cable’.
The more jobs an electrical wire does, the more expensive it is. It’s important to know what the different electrical wires do before committing. Frequently, that added expense can save a lot of costly replacements and time-consuming repairs.
