2/0 T90 CANADIAN COPPER BUILDING WIRE
2/0 T90 Canadian Copper Building Wire
Allowable Ampacity for 2/0 T90 Canadian Copper Building Wire: 265 Amps
Applications:
T90 Canadian Copper Building Wire is mostly used in power distribution. The electrical cable is also used in wet and dry locations as exposed or concealed electrical wire. T90 can be effectively used in ceiling fixtures. Unlike other types of Canadian building wire, T90 is prohibited for use in cable trays. The maximum conductor temperature is 90°C dry/ 75°C wet/ 60°C oil. The minimum recommended temperature for this type of building wire is -10°C. The cable has a 600 V rating.
