FAQ

Frequently asked questions

How should aluminium XHHW-2 be identified?

Specify the conductor alloy and size as well as the XHHW-2 designation. Include termination requirements from the installation design and the required compliance records.

Can these cables be supplied for my project?

Send the project specification and destination requirements. We will review the requested cable designation, construction and documentation; a UL standard reference alone does not establish local project acceptance.

What should accompany an enquiry?

Send the product requirements listed above with your specification or BOQ. Mark any items still to be decided so that construction, documentation and delivery requirements can be reviewed before quotation.
