Mc-hv 12/2 Solid Copper Aluminum Armor Cable 250ft

Product Description

The mchva12/2solyelgry250c is a MC-HV (Metal-Clad High Voltage) cable featuring 12 AWG solid copper conductors in a two-conductor configuration with aluminum interlocking armor. The cable ships in a 250-foot coil and includes yellow, gray, and green conductors. Designed for high-voltage branch circuit applications, this armored cable provides mechanical protection for conductors in environments where additional physical protection is required. Licensed electricians and electrical contractors install this type of cable in commercial and industrial settings where metallic armor is specified or code-required.

MC-HV aluminum armor cable is used in commercial and industrial electrical installations where high-voltage branch circuit wiring is required. It is well suited for use in exposed and concealed locations, including cable trays, conduit, and direct support applications where NEC Article 330 governs Metal-Clad cable installations. The aluminum armor provides both mechanical protection and, in applicable configurations, an equipment grounding path. This coil format is commonly used by electrical contractors on new construction and retrofit projects.

Key Features

• 12 AWG solid copper conductors for reliable conductivity in branch circuit wiring
• Two-conductor (12/2) configuration with yellow, gray, and green conductors
• Aluminum interlocking armor for mechanical protection in demanding environments
• High-voltage rated construction suitable for commercial and industrial applications
• 250-foot coil format reduces handling time on larger installations

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement and general-use MC-HV cable for commercial and industrial electrical installations requiring armored two-conductor high-voltage branch circuit wiring per NEC Article 330.

Installation Notes

Installation of MC-HV armored cable must be performed by a licensed electrician in accordance with NEC Article 330 and all applicable local codes. De-energize and lock out the circuit before making any terminations. A listed MC cable cutter should be used to cut the aluminum armor cleanly without damaging conductor insulation. Proper listed connectors and fittings are required at all enclosure entries to maintain the armor's mechanical and grounding continuity.
