Southwire 14lc11 Direct Burial Cable 14/2 500 Ft

Product Description

The SOUTHWIRE 14lc11 is a 14/2 direct burial cable rated for low-voltage landscape lighting applications. It carries two 14 AWG conductors and is engineered for installation directly in the ground without conduit, resisting moisture and soil contact over the long term. Licensed electricians and landscape lighting installers use this cable to connect fixtures, transformers, and run circuits in residential and light commercial outdoor environments. The 500-foot spool length supports large property layouts with minimal splicing.

This cable is suited for low-voltage outdoor lighting systems installed in residential yards, commercial grounds, and municipal landscape projects. It runs from a low-voltage transformer to path lights, spotlights, deck lights, and other 12-volt or low-voltage fixture types. The direct burial rating eliminates the need for conduit in most jurisdictions, simplifying trenching and installation. The 500-foot spool reduces the number of connections needed on long runs.

Key Features

• 14/2 conductor configuration with two 14 AWG conductors
• Direct burial rated for installation without conduit
• 500-foot spool length for extended landscape runs
• Designed for low-voltage landscape lighting circuits

Compatibility

Designed as a direct burial replacement or new-installation cable for low-voltage landscape lighting systems using 14/2 wiring configurations.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a qualified electrician or licensed landscape lighting contractor in accordance with local codes and NEC Article 300 burial depth requirements. De-energize the transformer and verify zero voltage on the circuit before making any connections or handling the cable. Trench depth and cover requirements vary by jurisdiction; confirm local code before backfilling. Avoid sharp bends or pinch points when routing the cable through soil or under hardscaping.
