Southwire 55040203 16/3 Seoow Outdoor Cord 600V Black

Product Description

The SOUTHWIRE 55040203 is a 16/3 SEOOW outdoor replacement cord rated at 600 volts, supplied in a 250-foot coil and sold in 1-foot increments with a 125-foot minimum cut length. This flexible cord carries three 16 AWG conductors in a black jacket engineered for outdoor service environments. SEOOW construction means the jacket and insulation are oil-resistant on both the outer sheath and the conductor insulation, making it suitable for portable equipment, tools, and temporary power applications where exposure to moisture, sunlight, and light petroleum contact is a concern. Licensed electricians and journeymen pull this cord for replacement service and portable equipment wiring on job sites and industrial floors.

This cord is intended for outdoor and portable-equipment applications in both residential and light industrial settings. Its 600-volt rating supports a wide range of standard portable tools, extension assemblies, and temporary power drops. The black jacket holds up to UV exposure in outdoor environments. Because it is sold in 1-foot increments from a 250-foot coil, contractors can order the exact footage needed for a project, reducing waste on service calls and equipment repair work. The 125-foot minimum order quantity applies per cut.

Installation Notes

Installation and termination of replacement cord sets should be performed by a licensed electrician in accordance with NEC Article 400 and any applicable local codes. De-energize and lock out the circuit before cutting, stripping, or terminating the cord. Use proper cord-grip strain-relief fittings at both termination ends to prevent tension from reaching the conductor connections. Do not exceed the ampacity rating for 16 AWG conductors as defined by the NEC for the specific application and ambient temperature.
