Supplied on a 500-foot spool, this 14-gauge solid copper conductor is coated with a yellow polyethylene (PE45) jacket that provides durable insulation and corrosion resistance in direct-bury environments. The yellow jacket color conforms to standard industry color-coding for gas service lines, making identification straightforward during installation and future excavation. Plumbing and gas service technicians install this wire alongside buried gas piping so the pipe can be located accurately with electronic detection equipment.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis tracer wire is suited for residential and light commercial gas distribution systems where underground metallic or non-metallic piping requires locatability after backfill. It is run parallel to or wound around the gas line before the trench is closed, then terminated at a test station or access point at grade. The 500-foot spool length accommodates typical service runs without a mid-run splice, reducing potential signal-loss points along the trace path.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e14-gauge solid copper conductor for reliable conductivity and signal transmission\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eYellow PE45 polyethylene jacket — standard color coding for gas service identification\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e500-foot spool reduces mid-run splices on typical residential and light commercial runs\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eDirect-bury rated insulation suited for underground tracer wire applications\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eSolid conductor construction maintains consistent resistance along the full run\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned as a direct-bury tracer wire for use alongside underground gas piping systems in residential and light commercial installations where electronic pipe locating is required after backfill.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTracer wire installation is typically performed by licensed plumbers or gas service technicians in accordance with local codes and manufacturer requirements for the piping system being served. The wire should be placed in continuous contact with or directly above the gas pipe before backfilling to ensure accurate electronic location later. Terminate the wire at a grade-accessible test station or valve box so locating equipment can be connected without excavation. Follow all applicable local gas codes and NFPA 54 requirements regarding tracer wire routing and termination.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eConductor Gauge\u003c\/strong\u003e: 14 AWG\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eConductor Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Solid Copper\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eJacket Material\u003c\/strong\u003e: Polyethylene (PE45)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eJacket Color\u003c\/strong\u003e: Yellow\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSpool Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 500 feet\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eApplication\u003c\/strong\u003e: Underground Gas Pipe Tracer\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eStandard Information\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\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: 544910502\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"SOUTHWIRE","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51383430185266,"sku":"544910502","price":121.8,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/312674023.png?v=1782596331","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/southwire-544910502-tracer-wire-14-gauge-solid-500-ft","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
