Mc Cable Aluminum Armor 12 Awg 4 Conductor Solid Copper Reel

Product Description

The MISCELLANEOUS MC CABLE-GENERIC mca12/4solmr is a metal-clad (MC) cable featuring aluminum armor over 12 AWG solid copper conductors in a 4-conductor configuration. The conductors are color-coded Black, Red, Blue, White, and Green, supporting multi-circuit and equipment-grounding applications. This master reel format is suited for larger wiring projects where electricians need continuous runs without frequent splices. MC cable is a go-to wiring method in commercial, industrial, and residential construction where a mechanically protected, flexible raceway alternative is required by the NEC.

This cable is used in branch circuit wiring for commercial and residential electrical installations where physical protection of conductors is required. The 4-conductor layout with a dedicated green ground wire supports multi-phase or multi-circuit wiring needs. Electricians running power to HVAC equipment, panels, or multi-circuit loads will find the master reel format practical for high-volume installations.

Key Features

• 12 AWG solid copper conductors for reliable branch circuit performance
• 4-conductor configuration with Black, Red, Blue, White, and Green wires
• Aluminum interlocked armor provides mechanical protection without conduit
• Master reel format minimizes mid-run splices on large jobs
• Green conductor serves as dedicated equipment ground

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement and general-use MC cable suitable for NEC-compliant branch circuit wiring in commercial and residential electrical systems where metal-clad cable is an approved wiring method.

Installation Notes

MC cable must be installed by a licensed electrician in accordance with NEC Article 330. De-energize the circuit and lock out the panel before terminating conductors. Use listed MC cable connectors and fittings at all enclosure entries to maintain the armor's mechanical and grounding continuity. Cut the aluminum armor with an approved MC cable cutter to avoid nicking the conductors.
