8/2 Heavy Duty W/GRND THW Submersible Pump Cable - Copper 600V

Allowable Ampacity:

• 50 Amps (based on NEC guidelines for THW conductors in wet locations)

Applications:

This submersible pump cable is designed for continuous submersion in deep wells, water systems, and irrigation setups. It supplies power from the control panel to single-phase 230V submersible pumps and operates at 600 volts with a temperature rating of 60°C (140°F) in wet conditions.

• Size 8/2 Usage: This well pump wire is designed for 2-wire high-output submersible pumps that do not require a control box. It is used in farm, irrigation, and larger residential well installations for pump motors up to 5 HP.
