Rated at 600 volts and 90 degrees C for both dry and wet locations, this wire is a standard choice for branch circuit wiring, feeder runs, and general electrical distribution work. The 19-strand configuration provides flexibility during pull-through conduit installations. Current capacity is 40 amps at 60 degrees C, 50 amps at 75 degrees C, and 55 amps at 90 degrees C, making it suitable for a range of load calculations under NEC ampacity tables. Licensed electricians and electrical contractors are the primary installers.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis wire is used in residential, commercial, and light industrial electrical installations where THHN-rated conductors are required by code. Typical applications include conduit runs in panel feeders, sub-panel wiring, motor circuit conductors, and general branch circuit wiring. The red insulation color aids in phase identification and conductor tracing during installation and service. The 500-foot reel length suits medium to large jobs where continuous runs reduce the need for splices.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e8 AWG stranded copper conductor with 19-strand configuration for flexibility in conduit\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTHHN-rated insulation: 600-volt, 90 degrees C rated for dry and wet environments\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePVC insulation with nylon jacket for abrasion resistance and pull-through ease\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRed insulation color for phase identification per standard color-coding practice\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAmpacity up to 55 amps at 90 degrees C per NEC tables\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e500-foot continuous reel minimizes splices on longer runs\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eDesigned for use in conduit systems where THHN or THWN-2 rated 8 AWG copper conductors are specified. Suitable for NEC-compliant branch circuit and feeder wiring in residential, commercial, and light industrial conduit installations.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eInstallation should be performed by a licensed electrician in accordance with NFPA 70 (NEC) requirements and applicable local codes. Always de-energize the circuit and verify zero voltage with a meter before making any connections. THHN wire must be pulled through conduit rather than run exposed; use appropriate wire-pulling lubricant to reduce friction on longer runs and protect the nylon jacket. Do not exceed the conductor ampacity ratings for the applicable temperature column based on the termination rating of the connected equipment.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eConductor Material\u003c\/strong\u003e: Copper\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eConductor Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: 8 AWG\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eStranding\u003c\/strong\u003e: 19 Strand\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eAmpacity\u003c\/strong\u003e: 40 amps at 60 degrees C, 50 amps at 75 degrees C, 55 amps at 90 degrees C\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eVoltage Rating\u003c\/strong\u003e: 600 volts\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTemperature Rating\u003c\/strong\u003e: 90 degrees C (Dry\/Wet)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eInsulation Material\u003c\/strong\u003e: PVC\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eJacket Material\u003c\/strong\u003e: Nylon\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eInsulation Color\u003c\/strong\u003e: Red\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOuter Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.216 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLength\u003c\/strong\u003e: 500 feet\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 66 pounds per 1000 feet\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWire Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: THHN\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eStandard Information\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBrand\u003c\/strong\u003e: THHNCU-GENERIC\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number\u003c\/strong\u003e: thhn8strred500r\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"THHNCU-GENERIC","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51268788027698,"sku":"THHN8STRRED500R","price":1004.47,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/308908487.jpg?v=1780705797","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/thhncu-generic-thhn8strred500r-thhn-8-awg-copper-wire-500-ft","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
