10/3C Solid Copper MC Stat Aluminum THHN Insulation Interlocked Armored Cable
Allowable Ampacity for 10/3C Solid Copper MC Stat Aluminum THHN Insulation Interlocked Armored Cable: 100 Amps
Applications:
Branch circuits are used in patient care areas of hospitals, nursing homes, outpatient facilities, dental offices, clinics, and medical centers (excluding emergency, life safety, or critical care locations). These circuits are also suitable for places of assembly as defined by NEC Article 518. Installations can be made under raised floors, above suspended ceilings, in environmental air-handling spaces, or in exposed or concealed dry locations. The wiring can be surface-mounted, fished, and used in applications requiring isolated or redundant grounding, as well as for normal or general-purpose power in healthcare settings, including patient care areas as per NEC Article 517.
