Southwire 55213242 14/2 Low Voltage Cable 50 Ft

Product Description

The SOUTHWIRE 55213242 is a 14-gauge, 2-conductor stranded low voltage cable rated for underground burial and outdoor exposed installations. Designed for circuits not exceeding 150 volts, it delivers reliable power distribution in landscape, accent, and security lighting systems. The two insulated conductors are arranged in a flat duplex construction, which allows technicians to split and terminate the cable quickly during installation. The black PVC jacket provides resistance to sunlight and moisture, making it well suited for direct outdoor exposure.

This cable is intended for low voltage outdoor lighting applications including landscape accent lighting, pathway lighting, and perimeter security lighting. At 50 feet per coil, it covers typical residential and light commercial landscape runs from a transformer to fixture strings. Its flat duplex profile simplifies routing through conduit, along grade, or directly underground where local codes permit direct burial of listed low voltage cable.

Key Features

• 14 AWG stranded conductors for flexibility during installation and routing
• 2-conductor flat duplex construction allows easy conductor separation at termination points
• Black PVC insulated jacket rated for sunlight exposure and outdoor environments
• Rated for circuits not exceeding 150 volts
• Operating temperature range of -20 degrees C to 60 degrees C
• 50-foot coil length suitable for residential landscape lighting runs

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style direct replacement and general-use low voltage cable for residential and light commercial outdoor lighting systems operating at 150 volts or below.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a qualified electrician or licensed low voltage lighting technician in accordance with applicable NEC requirements for low voltage wiring. Disconnect and de-energize the transformer before making any conductor connections or running new cable. When burying the cable, follow local code requirements for burial depth and conduit use. Avoid sharp bends or pinch points that could damage the PVC jacket and compromise insulation integrity.
