The stranded copper core consists of 19 strands, delivering flexibility for pulling through conduit runs. Thermoplastic insulation with a nylon jacket provides a 600-volt rating and a maximum operating temperature of 194 degrees F. The blue jacket color allows for straightforward circuit identification during rough-in and finish wiring work. Licensed electricians install this wire in branch circuit and feeder applications following NEC requirements.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis wire is suited for use in dry, damp, or wet locations where THHN or THWN conductor ratings are required. The 19-strand stranded core makes it manageable in tight conduit bends and junction boxes compared to solid wire of the same gauge. Typical applications include feeder runs to subpanels, branch circuits for HVAC equipment, and general-purpose building wiring in both light commercial and residential construction. The nylon jacket adds resistance to abrasion, oil, gasoline, and moisture, making it appropriate for industrial environments as well. This product is sold in 1-foot increments with a 250-foot minimum cut length from a 500-foot coil.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e6 AWG stranded copper conductor with 19 strands for improved pull flexibility\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDual-rated THHN\/THWN for use in dry, damp, and wet locations\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e600-volt rating suitable for standard branch circuit and feeder applications\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMaximum operating temperature of 194 degrees F\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNylon jacket resists abrasion, oil, gasoline, heat, and moisture\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBlue jacket color supports NEC-compliant conductor identification\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eDesigned for use in conduit-fed branch circuit and feeder wiring systems where THHN or THWN single-conductor wire at 6 AWG is specified per NEC or local electrical code requirements.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eInstallation must be performed by a licensed electrician in accordance with the NEC and applicable local codes. De-energize and lock out all circuits before connecting or splicing conductors. When pulling through conduit, use a listed wire-pulling lubricant to avoid jacket damage. Verify conduit fill calculations for the specific conduit type and size before installation.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eConductor Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: THHN\/THWN\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWire Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: 6 AWG\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eAmperage\u003c\/strong\u003e: 55 amps\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eVoltage Rating\u003c\/strong\u003e: 600 volts\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCore Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Stranded\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Strands\u003c\/strong\u003e: 19\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWire Material\u003c\/strong\u003e: Copper\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eInsulation Material\u003c\/strong\u003e: Thermoplastic\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eJacket Material\u003c\/strong\u003e: Nylon\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eJacket Color\u003c\/strong\u003e: Blue\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaximum Operating Temperature\u003c\/strong\u003e: 194 degrees F\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eResistance Features\u003c\/strong\u003e: Abrasion, Gasoline, Heat, Moisture, Oil\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Conductors\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMinimum Order Quantity\u003c\/strong\u003e: 250 feet\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.49 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eStandards\u003c\/strong\u003e: ASTM Specifications, CSA, Federal Specification A-A-59544, RoHS Compliant, UL 1063 (MTW), UL 83, UL Listed\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eStandard Information\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBrand\u003c\/strong\u003e: SOUTHWIRE\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number\u003c\/strong\u003e: 20496601\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"SOUTHWIRE","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51541717877042,"sku":"20496601","price":1194.03,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/864dd7ca11b735d7bbab083f6f2de895.jpg?v=1785882932","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/southwire-20496601-thhn-thwn-6-awg-55a-building-wire","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
