CONSTRUCTION:
Type MC Cable – Isolated Ground is constructed with soft-drawn copper, Type THHN/THWN conductors rated 90°C dry available in sizes 12 AWG and 10 AWG, and two insulated grounding conductors–one solid green and the second green with yellow stripes. The conductors are cabled together and a binder tape bearing the print legend is wrapped around the assembly. Aluminum interlocking armor is applied over the assembly. The standard PVC Jacket will not meet “Limited Smoke” or “LS” Rating. An optional SOLONON Jacket can be provided for “LS” Rating.
