APPLICATION:

KINGWIRE’S aluminum MC Cable can be used to replace wire and conduit in applications such as cable tray, power lighting, service feeders and branch circuits as permitted by the National Electrical Code. Suitable for use in concealed or exposed installations including environmental air spaces per NEC 300.22 (when unjacketed), and in vertical applications if installed per the requirements of NEC 300.19(A) and 330.30. Suitable for Class I Div 2, Class II Div 2, Class III Div 1 Hazardous Locations.
PVC-jacketed MC cable is sunlight resistant and suitable for use in wet locations per NEC 330.10(A)(11).

 

PRODUCT FEATURES:

Type MC cable is constructed with three or four 8000 series compact stranded aluminum 600V/1000V XHHW-2 conductors cabled with a bare or insulated 8000 series aluminum grounding conductor. Aluminum interlocked armor (AIA) is applied over the conductor assembly. All insulated conductors are marked and listed Type XHHW-2 and phase color coded.

Notes:
1. Ampacities shown are based on the National Electrical Code (NFPA 70) Table 310.16. Ampacities have been adjusted for more than three current-carrying conductors.
2. Other ground sizes are available upon request. MC cables in parallel must have a ground size meeting the minimum size specified in NEC Table 250.122 based on the rating or setting of the over-current protection device. Cables with undersized grounds will not meet code and are subject to rejection by the electrical inspector. Where necessary to comply with NEC 250.4(A)(5) or (B)(4), larger ground sizes may be required.
3. High voltage colors may not be stocked. Not all sizes are stocked.
