Product Description

Product Details - Copper THHN/THWN-2

Product Overview:
Copper THHN/THWN-2 Wire is a thermoplastic insulated and nylon-jacketed building wire that complies with UL 83 and UL 1063 standards. It is manufactured with a high-quality copper conductor, PVC insulation, and a nylon (polyamide) jacket, providing excellent heat, abrasion, and moisture resistance.

This wire is dual-rated as THHN (dry/humid locations) and THWN-2 (wet locations, 90°C), making it a versatile choice for residential, commercial, and industrial electrical installations.

Available in 14 AWG to 1000 kcmil, and offered in both solid and stranded copper types.

Applications:

Copper THHN/THWN-2 wire is widely used for:

• Building wiring in residential, commercial, and industrial environments

• Conduit and raceway installation, both indoors and underground (in conduit)

• Power distribution, branch circuits, and lighting circuits

• Control panels, switchboards, and machine wiring

• Infrastructure projects requiring code-compliant, high-performance wire

Note: THHN/THWN-2 is not suitable for overhead use or direct burial without conduit.

Product Advantages:

• Dual Rating (THHN/THWN-2): Suitable for dry, damp, and wet environments; 90°C rating in all.

• High Conductivity Copper: Ensures excellent current carrying capacity and low energy loss.

• Abrasion & Chemical Resistance: Nylon jacket protects from mechanical damage and chemical exposure.

• UL Listed & RoHS Compliant: Meets strict North American safety and environmental standards.

• Compact Design: Slim outer diameter enables easier pulling through conduit and tight spaces.

• Color-Coded Insulation: Simplifies identification and installation during complex wiring.

FAQs
1. What does THHN/THWN-2 stand for?

THHN stands for Thermoplastic High Heat-resistant Nylon-coated, and THWN-2 stands for Thermoplastic Heat and Water-resistant Nylon-coated, 90°C wet or dry.
This dual rating means the wire can be used in dry, damp, and wet environments with a temperature rating of 90°C.

2. Is this wire suitable for underground installation?

Yes, THWN-2 is suitable for underground use, but only when installed inside conduit (such as PVC or EMT).
It should not be used for direct burial without protection.

3. Is this THHN wire flame retardant?

Yes, THHN/THWN-2 wire is flame retardant and complies with UL 83 FT1 vertical flame test. It is suitable for general electrical installations requiring fire resistance.

4. Is this wire low smoke, halogen-free (LSZH)?

No, THHN wire is not LSZH. It is insulated with PVC and has a nylon jacket, which may emit smoke and halogen gases during combustion.
For LSZH applications, we recommend selecting special halogen-free cable types.

5. What standards does this product meet?

Our THHN/THWN-2 copper wire is:

• UL Listed (UL 83, UL 1063)

• RoHS Compliant

• Complies with NEC (NFPA 70)

• Manufactured under ISO 9001 quality system

6. What is the difference between solid and stranded THHN?

• Solid THHN is a single copper conductor-ideal for short, fixed routing with minimal flexing.

• Stranded THHN consists of multiple copper strands-more flexible and easier to install in longer runs or tight conduit.

7. Can you offer custom colors or printing?

Yes. We offer standard color coding (black, red, blue, green, white, yellow, etc.) and can provide custom jacket colors, printing, or striping for specific project needs or country standards.
