Woods Southwire NM-B 10/2 W/G Cable – 100 ft (Model #28829023)

Product overview

This Woods edition of the Southwire NM-B cable delivers a practical solution for general residential wiring. Offered as a 100‑foot spool of 10/2 with ground (10/2 W/G), it provides a reliable pathway for branch circuits that power outlets, switches, and lighting fixtures in dry, above‑ground spaces. The copper conductors, paired with a flame‑ and moisture‑resistant jacket, are designed to handle typical home wiring needs without being intended for wet locations. Use casings and channels suitable for dry indoor environments to maintain performance over time.

Key features

• Coated in a patented SIMpull Jacket for easier pulling, stripping, and installation
• Romex Type NM-B copper building wire commonly used for residential branch circuits
• Installation above ground and in dry locations only
• 600‑volt rating accommodates standard household loads
• May be run in air voids of masonry block or tile walls in dry, non‑damp areas

Why it matters for your project

The NM-B 10/2 with ground offers a balance of flexibility and durability for everyday residential wiring tasks. The SIMpull jacket reduces friction during installation, which can ease pulling through stud bays or framing cavities. Copper conductors provide reliable conductivity for lighting circuits and receptacle runs, while the 600‑volt rating aligns with common building codes for indoor wiring. This cable is designed for dry locations and above‑ground use, helping you plan safe, code‑compliant branch circuits without venturing into damp or wet spaces.

Ideal uses

• Residential branch circuits for outlets, switches, and lighting in dry interiors
• Above‑ground runs within walls, ceilings, or protected cavities
• Short to medium length wiring runs in homes, barns, and small shops where dry locations prevail

Installation notes

Ensure work areas are dry and free of standing moisture. Use appropriate connectors and protection as required by local code. The ampacity is specified for conductor temperatures not exceeding 90°C, with an ampacity rating effectively limited to 60°C for the conductors. Avoid routing through wet locations or moisture-prone voids to preserve performance.
