Southwire 11579083 14 Awg Solid Thhn Wire 600V 50 Ft Black

Product Description

The SOUTHWIRE 11579083 is a 50-foot coil of 14 AWG solid copper THHN building wire rated at 600 volts and 90 degrees C. It is designed for general-purpose power, lighting, and control wiring in residential and light commercial electrical systems. The conductor is solid copper, insulated with flame-retardant PVC and protected by a nylon outer jacket. This combination provides resistance to oil, gasoline, chemicals, and abrasion, making it a reliable choice for conduit and raceway installations where durability and code compliance are required. Licensed electricians and electrical contractors are the primary installers of this wire type.

This wire is suited for branch circuit wiring, lighting circuits, and low-load control applications in new construction and retrofit projects. It is intended for use inside conduit or enclosed raceways rather than direct burial or open-air exposure. The black jacket color is standard for hot conductor identification in single-phase and three-phase branch circuits. The 50-foot length is appropriate for single-room or single-circuit runs without splicing.

Key Features

• 14 AWG solid copper conductor for general-purpose branch circuit wiring
• 600-volt rating suitable for standard residential and commercial branch circuits
• 90 degrees C temperature rating for use in dry and wet conduit environments
• Flame-retardant PVC insulation with nylon jacket for added abrasion and chemical resistance
• Resistant to oil, gasoline, and common shop chemicals
• UL listed for compliance with NEC installation requirements

Compatibility

Designed for use in conduit and raceways as general-purpose THHN building wire for power, lighting, and control circuits in residential and commercial applications.

Installation Notes

Installation must be performed by a licensed electrician in accordance with the National Electrical Code (NEC) and applicable local codes. De-energize the circuit and verify the absence of voltage before pulling or terminating wire. THHN wire must be installed inside approved conduit or raceways and is not rated for direct burial or open wiring applications. Use appropriate wire-pulling lubricant when pulling through long conduit runs to avoid jacket damage.
