Copperweld XHHW-2 Cable helps teams manage cost, support reliable installation in challenging environments, and deliver efficient electrical performance in a wide range of electrical applications.
Across commercial, industrial, and utility projects, electrical systems must perform reliably in higher-temperature and more demanding environments while staying on schedule and within budget. Copperweld XHHW-2 Cable is designed to support these demands with a durable insulation system suitable for feeders and branch circuits in conduit and other standard wiring methods. Its bimetallic Copper-Clad Aluminum (CCA) construction helps reduce exposure to copper price volatility, minimize theft-related disruptions, and deliver efficient electrical performance when sized per NEC requirements, while supporting dependable performance in demanding installation environments.
