Thhncu-generic thhn6strblumr Thhn 6 Awg Stranded Copper Wire

Product Description

The THHNCU-GENERIC thhn6strblumr is a 6 AWG stranded copper THHN building wire with blue PVC insulation and a nylon jacket, rated for use in dry environments up to 90 degrees C and 600 volts. The conductor is 19-strand copper, providing flexibility for pulling through conduit in residential and commercial wiring applications. Current carrying capacity is 55 amps at 60 degrees C, 65 amps at 75 degrees C, and 75 amps at 90 degrees C, depending on installation conditions and applicable code. This wire is sold cut to length and is handled by licensed electricians working under NEC guidelines.

THHN 6 AWG stranded wire is commonly used in branch circuits, feeder runs, and service entrance work inside conduit. The 6 AWG size is a typical choice for circuits serving HVAC equipment, subpanels, and other higher-draw loads in both residential and light commercial construction. The blue insulation color supports color-coded wiring practices during installation and inspection. This wire is intended for conduit-only installations in dry locations as required by THHN ratings.

Key Features

• 6 AWG stranded copper conductor with 19-strand construction for improved flexibility
• THHN-rated for dry locations at up to 90 degrees C and 600 volts
• Blue PVC insulation with nylon jacket for abrasion resistance during conduit pulls
• Current capacity up to 75 amps at 90 degrees C per applicable rating tables
• Outer diameter of 0.249 inches suitable for standard conduit fill calculations
• Available cut to length to reduce waste on specific job quantities

Compatibility

Designed for use in conduit-based wiring systems where THHN-rated conductors are required. Suitable for use in dry locations in raceway, conduit, or cable tray installations per NEC Article 310 guidelines.

Installation Notes

Installation must be performed by a licensed electrician in accordance with the National Electrical Code (NEC) and all applicable local codes. De-energize and lock out the circuit before terminating or splicing conductors. THHN wire must be installed inside approved conduit or raceway and is not rated for wet or damp locations without additional rating. Verify conduit fill calculations prior to pulling multiple conductors through a single raceway.
