Southwire 55808601 Sjoow Portable Cord 14 Awg 3C 300V 250 Ft

Product Description

The SOUTHWIRE 55808601 is a 14 AWG, 3-conductor SJOOW-type portable power cord rated for 300 volts and temperatures from -40 to 90 degrees C. It is built on ASTM B-174 annealed bare copper conductors stranded at 41/30 for flexibility under repeated bending, with EPDM rubber insulation and a CPE outer jacket. The jacket is black with an outer diameter of 0.37 inches. Each 250-foot carton is listed to UL 62 and CSA 22.2, and the cord is RoHS compatible. Electricians and maintenance technicians use this cord where a durable, oil-resistant portable power connection is required in demanding service environments.

This cord is suited for portable tools, portable appliances, small motors, and associated machinery in both residential and light commercial settings. The SJOOW designation indicates an oil-resistant jacket and insulation rated for hard usage, making it appropriate for shop floors, construction sites, and industrial maintenance applications. The three-conductor configuration uses black, white, and green color coding, providing a grounded circuit for equipment that requires an equipment ground. It meets NEC requirements and Federal Specification J-C-580B for portable cord applications.
