Southwire 11589983 Thhn Wire 12 Awg Solid 600V 50 Ft Red

Product Description

The SOUTHWIRE 11589983 is a 50-foot coil of 12 AWG solid red THHN building wire rated for general-purpose electrical installations. Constructed with solid copper conductors, it features flame-retardant PVC insulation and a nylon jacket that together provide resistance to oil, gasoline, chemicals, and abrasion. Rated at 600 volts and 90 degrees C, this wire meets the thermal and voltage demands of standard residential and light commercial wiring applications. Licensed electricians and electrical contractors install this wire for power distribution, lighting circuits, and control wiring routed through conduit or raceway systems.

This wire is suited for residential and light commercial new construction, renovation, and service work. Its solid copper construction makes it a reliable choice for branch circuit wiring in conduit or enclosed raceways where THHN-rated wire is specified by code. The red jacket color aids in circuit identification when multiple conductors are pulled through the same conduit run. Typical applications include panel feeders, lighting branch circuits, and control wiring where a 12 AWG conductor is required.

Key Features

• Solid copper conductor for reliable conductivity and firm termination at devices and panels
• Flame-retardant PVC insulation with nylon jacket for added mechanical and chemical protection
• Rated 600 volts and 90 degrees C for standard branch circuit applications
• Resistant to oil, gasoline, chemicals, and abrasion for use in demanding environments
• Red jacket color supports conductor identification in multi-wire conduit runs
• UL listed for compliance with applicable electrical codes and standards

Compatibility

Designed for use in conduit and raceway systems where THHN-rated 12 AWG solid building wire is specified. Suitable for power, lighting, and control wiring in residential and light commercial electrical installations.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed electrician in accordance with the National Electrical Code (NEC) and applicable local codes. De-energize and lock out the circuit before making any terminations or pulling wire through conduit. Solid 12 AWG conductors require proper stripping and firm seating at screw terminals or lugs to ensure a reliable connection. Avoid sharp bends and pulling tension that exceeds the wire manufacturer guidelines for conduit pulls.
