X-Olene^Ž Type XHHW-2 600V Power and Control Copper Conductor/90°C Wet or Dry

A Bare, Solid or Stranded Copper Conductor

B X-Olene Insulation

Insulation

X-Olene is Okonite's trade name for its chemically cross-linked polyethylene insulating compound with outstanding electrical and physical properties. Its excellent chemical physical resistance permits X-Olene's use in areas exposed to alcohol, ketones and dilute acids and bases, without additional coverings.

Applications
X-Olene Type XHHW-2 600 Volt Cables are recommended for general low voltage power and control applications. Where the National Electrical Code applies, Type XHHW-2 may be used up to 90°C in wet or dry locations. These cables may be installed in wet or dry locations, indoors or outdoors, in raceways, underground ducts, or lashed to a messenger for aerial installation.

Specifications
Conductor: Bare, solid or stranded copper per ASTM B-3 or B-8.

Insulation: Meets or exceeds all requirements of ICEA S-95-658, NEMA WC-70, and UL Standards.

Listed by Underwriters Laboratories, Inc. as Type XHHW-2.

Ampacities

(1) Ampacities are based on Table 310-16 of the National Electrical Code for these 90°C rated conductors at an ambient temperature of 30°C. The 75°C wet column is provided for additional information.

The ampacities shown apply to open runs of cable, installation in any approved raceway, direct burial in the earth, or as aerial cable on a messenger. Derating for more than three current carrying conductors within a raceway is in accordance with Note 8 to NEC Tables 310-16 through 310-19.

(2) Based on three (3) conductors in a single enclosed or exposed conduit. Capacities based on 40°C air ambient using ICEA methods. For 30°C ambient multiply values by 1.10; for 50°C multiply by .90. For other ambients or installation conditions refer to Okonite's Engineering Data Book EHB-90.

The ampacities shown also apply to cables installed in cable tray in accordance with NEC Section 318-11.
