Southwire THHN Gauge Building Wire

Thermoplastic high-heat-resistant nylon (THHN) building wire is a coated wire typically run through conduit or cable trays. This general purpose wire is used to supply an electrical current in a range of indoor wiring projects, including control circuits and appliances. It has a durable nylon jacket that resists abrasion, protects against shock, and shields the thermoplastic insulation and metal conductor from damage. Building wire and cable carry electrical current from a power source to a device in a building, such as an outlet or light fixture. Building wire is typically run through conduit, cable trays, or raceways. Building cable consists of multiple strands of wire bundled inside a thermoplastic or metal sheath. Building wire and cable are typically used to run new circuits or extend old circuits inside walls and ceilings in commercial, industrial, and residential properties. This listing is for each.
