Thhn 12 Awg Solid Copper Wire Yellow 2500 Ft Reel 600V

Product Description

The THHNCU-GENERIC thhn12solyel2500r is a 12 AWG solid plain copper THHN building wire rated at 600 volts and supplied on a 2500-foot reel. The conductor is insulated with PVC and jacketed with nylon, which gives it the abrasion and moisture resistance required for both conduit runs and exposed wiring applications. Temperature ratings are 90 degrees C in dry locations and 75 degrees C in wet locations. The yellow insulation color simplifies circuit identification in panel wiring, branch circuit rough-in, and multi-circuit conduit pulls. Licensed electricians install this wire in residential, commercial, and light industrial settings following NEC guidelines.

THHN 12 AWG solid wire is a standard choice for 20-amp branch circuits in residential and light commercial construction. It is routed through EMT, rigid metal conduit, PVC conduit, and wireways wherever a code-compliant 600-volt rated conductor is required. The 2500-foot reel format is suited for new construction projects, tract home wiring, and commercial rough-in work where large quantities reduce reel changes and labor time. The solid stranding makes this wire well suited for terminations at receptacles, switches, and breaker panels.

Key Features

• 12 AWG solid plain copper conductor rated for 20-amp circuits
• 600-volt insulation rating suitable for standard branch circuit wiring
• PVC insulation with nylon jacket for abrasion resistance in conduit
• Dual temperature rating: 90 degrees C dry, 75 degrees C wet
• Yellow insulation for easy circuit identification during installation
• 2500-foot reel minimizes changeovers on large wiring projects

Compatibility

Designed for use in conduit systems and raceways as a general-purpose THHN-rated branch circuit conductor in 600-volt or lower electrical distribution installations.

Installation Notes

Installation must be performed by a licensed electrician in accordance with the NEC and applicable local codes. De-energize and lock out the circuit or panel before making any terminations. Pull wire through conduit using appropriate wire-pulling lubricant to avoid insulation damage. Solid conductors should be terminated with listed connectors rated for solid wire where required by the device manufacturer.
