1/0-1/0-1/0-2 Copper SER Service Entrance Cable

Allowable Ampacity at 60° C: 125

Allowable Ampacity at 75° C: 150

Allowable Ampacity at 90° C: 170

Applications:

Copper SER cable is a service entrance cable used in residential, light commercial, and multi-unit buildings for panel feeders, subpanels, and branch circuits. It is rated for 600V and suitable for dry locations with an operating temperature of up to 90°C.

This 1/0-1/0-1/0-2 size is commonly used for:

• 150A main service panels in residential dwellings (per NEC 310.15(B)(7)).
• Subpanel feeds in homes, apartments, and small commercial buildings.
• Power distribution from meter bases to panelboards.
• Supplying power to high-load electrical appliances, such as HVAC systems and electric water heaters.

Construction:

Conductor:

The "1/0-1/0-1/0-2" designation means this SER cable has three 1/0 AWG phase conductors (hot wires) and one 2 AWG bare stranded copper ground conductor. The conductors are made of compact stranded annealed soft copper, cabled together with a reinforced binder tape.

Insulation:

The cable has cross-linked polyethylene type XHHW-2 insulation.

Jacket:

SE cable is jacketed with gray sunlight-resistant polyvinyl chloride (PVC). This dielectrically strong insulation is resistant to corrosion, abrasion, chemicals, and mechanical impact.
