Thhncu-generic tffn16stryel500r Tffn 16 Awg 500 Ft Yellow

Product Description

The THHNCU-GENERIC tffn16stryel500r is a 16 AWG stranded copper TFFN/nylon-jacketed building wire supplied on a 500-foot spool in yellow insulation. Rated for 600 volts and 90 degrees C, this single-conductor wire is built for use in conduit runs, panel wiring, and control circuit applications where a color-coded, thermoplastic-insulated conductor is required. The 26-strand configuration provides flexibility during pull-through and termination work. PVC insulation with a nylon outer jacket gives it resistance to abrasion and common solvents encountered in commercial and residential electrical installations.

This wire is suited for use in dry or damp locations inside conduit, raceways, or enclosed trays. It is a common choice for branch circuit wiring, fixture whip assemblies, and motor control panel wiring where a flexible, color-coded 16 AWG conductor is specified. Yellow insulation supports color-coded circuit identification practices used in commercial and industrial electrical work. Licensed electricians and electrical contractors are the primary installers of this product.

Key Features

• 16 AWG stranded copper conductor with 26-strand construction for improved flexibility
• 600-volt rated insulation suitable for standard branch and control circuit wiring
• 90 degrees C temperature rating supports use in higher-ambient environments
• PVC insulation with nylon jacket provides abrasion and solvent resistance
• Yellow color coding aids circuit identification and NEC compliance in multi-conductor installations
• 500-foot spool quantity reduces splicing needs on longer conduit runs

Compatibility

Designed as a standard TFFN/nylon single-conductor building wire for use in conduit, raceway, and enclosed wiring applications per applicable NEC requirements for thermoplastic-insulated conductors.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed electrician in accordance with the National Electrical Code (NEC) and applicable local codes. De-energize and lock out all circuits before making connections or pulling wire through conduit. TFFN wire is rated for use in conduit or raceways and should not be used as open wiring or in wet locations unless specifically listed for that application. Use appropriately sized conduit fill calculations per NEC Chapter 9 when routing alongside other conductors.
