14/2 W/GRND NM-B 600V Solid White

Allowable Ampacity for 14/2 W/GRND NM-B : 15 Amps

Applications:

Type NM-B Copper Building Wire is commonly applied in residential building wiring as a branch circuit for switches and outlets. It can also be used for various building purposes, both inside and outside (the temperature should not exceed 90 C). NM-B electrical wirecan be used in air voids in tile walls. The voltage rating of the cable is 600 volts. Theelectrical wire is easily installed because it is specifically designed for easier pulling.

Also Known As:

14/2 NM-B Wire, 14/2 NM-B Cable, 14/2 Non-Metallic Sheathed Cable, 14/2 Non-Metallic Sheathed Wire

Standards:

• ASTM B-3 and B-8

APPLICATIONS

Type NM-B (nonmetallic-sheathed cable) may be used for both exposedand concealed work in normally dry locations at temperatures not to exceed 90C (with ampacity limitedto that for 60C conductors) as specified in the 2011 National Electrical Code. NM-B cable is primarilyused in residential wiring as branch circuits for outlets, switches, and other loads. NM-B cable may berun in air voids of masonry block or tile walls where such walls are not wet or damp locations. Voltagerating for NM-B cable is 600 volts.

  CONSTRUCTION

  Type NM-B cable is manufactured as 2, 3, or 4 conductor cable, with abare ground wire. Copper conductors are annealed (soft) copper. Solid conductors are compressed Solid. Conductor insulation is 90C-rated polyvinyl chloride (PVC), nylon jacketed. Type NM-B is designed for Easier Pulling, Resulting in Easier installation. The cablejacket is color-coded for quick size identification; White – 14 AWG, Yellow – 12 AWG, Orange – 10 AWG,and Black – 8 AWG and 6 AWG.
