Southwire 56370599 12 Awg Pump Cable 600V 250 Ft

Product Description

The SOUTHWIRE 56370599 is a 12 AWG, 2-conductor submersible pump cable rated at 600 volts, designed for direct burial and wet-location pump installations. The cable features solid bare copper conductors insulated with PVC to THW standards and includes a ground conductor. The twisted construction keeps conductors paired tightly for clean routing through conduit or direct drop into a well casing. Rated from -40 to 75 degrees C, this cable handles the temperature extremes common in groundwater pump applications. It is resistant to acid, abrasion, alkalis, flame, gas, oil, and water, making it appropriate for demanding submersible environments. Each roll is 250 feet.

This cable is intended for use with submersible water pumps in residential and light commercial well systems. Licensed electricians and pump installation contractors typically install this cable when wiring a submersible pump to a pressure switch or control panel. The 250-foot roll length suits standard residential well depths and provides enough length to run from the pump to the surface control with working slack. The twisted-pair configuration reduces electromagnetic interference and simplifies pulling through tight drop pipe assemblies.

Key Features

• 12 AWG solid bare copper conductors for reliable current capacity in pump circuits
• 600-volt rating suitable for standard single-phase submersible pump wiring
• Includes ground conductor for code-compliant grounding of pump motor
• PVC insulation rated THW, resistant to acid, abrasion, alkalis, flame, gas, oil, and water
• Temperature rated from -40 to 75 degrees C for year-round buried and submerged service
• UL 83 listed and RoHS compliant

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or new-install cable for residential and light commercial submersible pump systems requiring 12 AWG 2-conductor-with-ground, 600-volt twisted pump cable.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed electrician in accordance with the National Electrical Code (NEC) and applicable local codes. Disconnect and lock out all power to the pump circuit before handling or splicing cable. Use waterproof wire connectors rated for submersible service at all underground or in-well splice points. Do not exceed the cable's 600-volt or 75 degrees C ratings in the installed circuit.
