Southwire 28828221 Romex Simpull Nm-b 12/2 Cable 25 Feet

Product Description

The SOUTHWIRE 28828221 is a 12/2 Romex SIMpull NM-B nonmetallic sheathed cable with a bare ground conductor, designed for residential and light commercial interior wiring applications. The cable features annealed soft copper conductors with 90 degrees F-rated polyvinyl chloride (PVC) insulation and a nylon jacket. The SIMpull jacket compound reduces pulling friction, making installation through conduit and framing faster and less labor-intensive. The yellow outer jacket provides quick size identification at a glance, consistent with the NM-B color-coding standard for 12 AWG cable. This roll covers 25 feet, suited for short branch circuit runs.

This cable is intended for use in residential and light commercial construction where nonmetallic sheathed cable is permitted by the National Electrical Code. Typical applications include branch circuit wiring for outlets, switches, lighting, and general-purpose circuits inside dry, protected locations such as walls, floors, and ceilings. Licensed electricians and electrical contractors are the primary installers. The cable meets the wiring method requirements of NFPA 70 for Type NM-B installation in normally dry locations.

Key Features

• 12/2 configuration with bare ground wire included
• Annealed soft copper conductors for reliable conductivity and flexibility
• PVC conductor insulation rated to 90 degrees C with nylon jacket for added pull protection
• SIMpull jacket reduces pulling friction during installation
• Yellow outer jacket allows fast AWG size identification in the field
• Listed under UL Standard 719 and compliant with REACH and RoHS requirements

Compatibility

Designed as a standard Type NM-B nonmetallic sheathed cable for use in residential and light commercial branch circuit wiring in dry, protected indoor locations where NM-B cable is permitted by the applicable electrical code.

Installation Notes

Installation must be performed by a licensed electrician in accordance with NFPA 70 and all applicable local electrical codes. Always de-energize the circuit at the breaker panel and verify the circuit is dead with a voltage tester before connecting or splicing. NM-B cable must be protected from physical damage where exposed and must not be used in wet, damp, or direct-burial locations. Support and secure the cable per NEC spacing requirements throughout the run.
