Sized at 8 AWG with a 40-amp capacity and a 600-volt rating, this wire features a thermoplastic insulation layer and a nylon jacket for added protection. The 19-strand copper core provides flexibility during pull-through in conduit runs. The blue jacket color supports circuit identification in multi-wire installations. Licensed electricians and electrical contractors are the primary installers for this product type.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis wire is suited for use in conduit, raceways, and cable trays in both dry and wet locations. THHN\/THWN dual-rated wire handles a broad range of branch circuit, feeder, and service wiring applications. It performs in environments where resistance to abrasion, heat, moisture, oil, and gasoline exposure is required. The 500-foot coil with a 250-foot minimum cut length makes it practical for larger commercial jobs and panel feed runs where significant linear footage is needed.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eTHHN\/THWN dual rating for use in both dry and wet or damp locations\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e8 AWG stranded copper core with 19 strands for improved flexibility\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e40-amp ampacity at 600 volts\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eNylon outer jacket with thermoplastic insulation for resistance to abrasion, heat, moisture, oil, and gasoline\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eBlue jacket color for circuit identification in conduit wiring systems\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eMaximum operating temperature of 194 degrees F\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned as a standard THHN\/THWN replacement or new-installation wire for use in conduit, raceways, and approved cable trays in residential, commercial, and industrial electrical systems where 8 AWG copper conductors are specified.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eInstallation must be performed by a licensed electrician in accordance with the National Electrical Code (NEC) and all applicable local codes. De-energize and lock out the circuit before making any connections. Use appropriate wire-pulling lubricant when routing through conduit to avoid jacket damage.
