Southwire 68579252 14/2 x 50' 600V Copper SIMpull THHN THWN Cable

Product overview

Meet a robust copper conductor option from Southwire designed for commercial, industrial, and multi-residential installations. The 68579252 cable comes on a 50-foot reel and features 14/2 conductors rated for 600 volts. Its protective metallic interlocked armor provides durable shielding, while the pre-installed conductors and reverse-wound spool support smoother pulls through conduits and raceways.

• Length: 50 Feet
• Size: 14/2
• Jacket color: Black/white/green
• For wet and dry locations
• 90°C heat capacity

Compared with traditional steel MC cable, this SIMpull option delivers significant weight savings—roughly 45% lighter—while preserving rigidity and protection where it matters most on busy jobsites. The “reverse wound” design is intended to ease installation, reducing resistance when pulling through crowded conduit routes.

Where and how this cable shines

This cable is suitable for a range of applications, including branch feeders, power lighting, control signals, and service power distribution. It’s designed for commercial, industrial, institutional, and multi-residential buildings, with flexibility for aerial cable on messenger, cable trays, and approved raceways. It can be surface mounted, fished, or embedded in plaster, offering installation versatility across different building designs.

• Wet and dry location compatibility
• Aerial cable on messenger and tray/raceway usage
• Can be surface mounted, fished, or embedded in plaster
• Copper conductors (solid/stranded per ASTM B-3/B-8)

Safety and performance are supported by UL classifications that cover through-penetration fire walls of 1, 2, and 3 hours, aligning with typical building code requirements for protected pathways. The jacket combines nylon and thermoplastic for durable, long-lasting operation in varied environments, while the 120V rating and 90°C capability expand its potential use cases within compliant systems.

What to expect in practice

Imagine running reliable feeders from a main panel to lighting circuits and control lines across a bustling facility. The cable’s heavy-duty protection, combined with easy pulling and a versatile installation profile, helps create cleaner, safer, and more manageable electrical runs. While real-world results depend on project specifics, this Southwire cable is positioned to support efficient installations and dependable performance in demanding settings.
