Southwire so14/3blkstr600vmr Soow 14/3 600V Flexible Cord

Product Description

The SOUTHWIRE so14/3blkstr600vmr is a SOOW-rated flexible power cord built for demanding portable and semi-portable electrical applications. Constructed with stranded copper conductors in a 14 AWG, 3-conductor configuration, it carries a 600-volt rating and features a black thermoplastic outer jacket. The SOOW designation indicates oil-resistant inner and outer jackets with an extra-hard service duty rating, making it suitable for environments where flexibility, abrasion resistance, and exposure to petroleum-based fluids are concerns. This cord is sold cut to length and is commonly specified by electricians and industrial maintenance technicians who need a reliable, code-compliant flexible wiring solution.

This cord is appropriate for use in residential, commercial, and light industrial settings where a flexible multi-conductor cable is required for portable tools, portable lighting, stage equipment, generators, or machinery connections. The three-conductor layout includes black, white, and green insulated conductors, supporting standard hot, neutral, and equipment-ground wiring configurations. Its flexible stranded construction makes routing through tight spaces or around corners more manageable than solid conductors during installation.

Key Features

• SOOW rating — oil-resistant inner and outer jackets, extra-hard service duty
• 14 AWG stranded copper conductors for flexibility and conductivity
• 3-conductor configuration with black, white, and green insulation
• 600-volt rated for a wide range of portable power applications
• Black thermoplastic outer jacket for durability and abrasion resistance
• Cut-to-length format allows ordering exact quantities needed for the job

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style flexible power cord suitable for portable tools, portable appliances, generators, and other equipment requiring a 14 AWG 3-conductor 600V SOOW-rated flexible cord connection.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed electrician in accordance with the National Electrical Code (NEC), particularly Article 400 governing flexible cords and cables. De-energize all circuits before terminating or connecting the cord. Verify that the connected equipment rating does not exceed the current-carrying capacity of 14 AWG conductors per applicable NEC ampacity tables. Avoid sharp bends, pinching under doors or covers, or use in fixed wiring applications where flexible cord is not permitted by code.
