Applications
For use in heavy-duty services as power supply cable, AC systems (grounded and ungrounded), mobile and portable electrical equipment, motor and battery leads. For 2 conductor cables use on DC or AC single phase systems where no grounding is required, or on DC systems with one conductor for grounding. For 4 conductor cables, use on two or three phase AC systems with one conductor used for grounding. For 5 conductor cables, use in applications where separating the system neutral from the frame ground is required.
