Image not to scale. See Table 1 for dimensions.

CONSTRUCTION:
1. Conductor: Class K, Flexible stranded bare annealed copper per ASTM B3, B172, and B174
2. Insulation: Polyvinyl Chloride (PVC) with nylon layer THHN
3. Ground: One Green Ground with Yellow Stripe THHN
4. Jacket: Black Thermoplastic Elastomer TPE: Other jacket colors available upon request

APPLICATIONS AND FEATURES:

Southwire’s Machine Flex® tray power cables 600/1000 Volt conform to NFPA 79 and are suited for use in wet and dry
areas, conduits, ducts, troughs, trays, direct burial and where superior electrical properties are desired. Constructions with 3
or more conductors are listed for exposed runs (TC-ER) per NEC® 336.10. These cables are capable of operating continuously
at the conductor temperature not in excess of 75°C in wet locations and 90°C in dry locations, 130°C for emergency
overload, and 150°C for short circuit conditions. For uses in Class I, II, Division 2 hazardous locations per NEC® Article 501
and 502. Southwire’s machine tray cable is ideal to power CNC machines, grinding, cutting, metal forming, buffing, bottling
equipment, conveyors, processing & packaging equipment, assembly lines, control panels, food and beverage, oil sands,
plant expansion, wind energy and data centers. Multiple approvals for multiple applications. Cable is rated for -40°C cold
impact. Two conductor cables contain no green/yellow ground.
