10/3 UF-B Applications:

An underground feeder cable's prime purpose is to bring the power from the residential, commercial, and industrial buildings to outdoor constructions, which include pumps and lighting constructions. The electrical cable is suitable for direct burial, as well as direct exposure to the sunlight. It is permitted for use as a feeder or branch circuit cable if provided with overcurrent protection. Copper Underground Feeder Cable UF-B has a rating of 600 volts.

Common Applications:

• Underground Feeding
• Outdoor Lighting
• Outdoor Outlets
• Direct Burial
• Wet or Damp Locations
• Pump Systems
• HVAC Systems
• Underground Branch Circuits
• Indoor Applications Exposed to Moisture

Particular applications for size 10/3 UF-B:

• 240V Circuits With a Neutral: For devices that operate at 240V but also have components that need 120V, requiring both hot wires and the neutral, such as  air conditioning units and certain models of ovens or ranges.
• 120/240V Circuits: Circuits that provide both voltages, often seen in some well pumps

, and subpanels where both 120V and 240V circuits are needed

• Multiple 120V Circuits

10/3 UF-B Standards:

• Ul Standard 493 for Thermoplastic-Insulated Underground Feeder and Branch Circuit Cables
• For use in interior wiring in wet, dry or corrosive locations under recognized wiring methods of the National Electrical Code (NEC)
• Acceptable to be installed as a Non-Metallic Sheathed Cable following NEC Article 339-3 (4)
• Acceptable for use per NEC Articles 300-4(b) and 339
• ASTM - B3 and B-8

10/3 UF-B Construction:

Conductor:

UF-B wire has solid or stranded Type THHN/THWN that are laid parallel with an uninsulated grounding conductor. The conductors are made of solid annealed bare copper.

Insulation:

The cable is insulated with a PVC jacket with a nylon covering. It is resistant to moisture, grease, corrosion, sunlight, and chemicals.
