Value Collection BD-17969N Thhn Wire 16 Awg 500 Ft Blue

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION BD-17969N is a 500-foot spool of 16 AWG THHN stranded copper building wire rated for 10 amps and 600 volts. The conductor is built from 26 stranded copper strands insulated with thermoplastic and jacketed in nylon, giving it flexibility and durability in conduit runs. With a maximum operating temperature of 194 degrees F, this wire is suited for general-purpose branch circuit and feeder wiring in residential, commercial, and light industrial applications. Licensed electricians and electrical contractors are the primary installers of this product type.

This wire is commonly used in conduit installations for branch circuits, panels, and control wiring where THHN-rated conductors are required by code. The blue jacket color follows standard color-coding conventions and aids in circuit identification during rough-in and panel termination work. The 500-foot continuous length reduces splice points on longer runs. It performs in environments where exposure to moisture, oils, fuels, and UV light is a concern, making it suitable for both indoor and outdoor conduit applications.

• UL Listed and OSHA acceptable; 500-foot continuous length per spool

Compatibility

Designed for use in conduit systems requiring THHN-rated 16 AWG stranded copper conductors in residential, commercial, and light industrial branch circuit wiring applications.

Installation Notes

Installation should 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 or panel before terminating any conductors. THHN wire must be pulled through an approved conduit system and is not rated for direct burial or use as open wiring outside of conduit. Verify ampacity derating requirements when multiple conductors are bundled in a single conduit run.
