PE/PVC Ground

Scope

Ground wire completes the electrical circuit if the neutral conductor fails because of a fault or short circuit. This wire connects to the earth to create a resistance path, allowing electrical current to reach the ground safely and discharge excess electricity.

Applicable Tests and Standards:

• ASTM B-1, B-3, AND B-8
• NFPA 70/NEC ARTICLE 800

Features:

• 600V RATED

Construction

Conductors:

Single conductors are stranded, annealed or hardened, tin coated or uncoated copper.

Insulation:

Conductors are insulated with a concentrically applied green or black HMWPE (high molecular weight polyethylene), or green or tan PVC (polyvinyl chloride).

Identification and Packaging:

Print legends on the wire include the manufacturer, conductor size, voltage rating, UL symbol (if applicable) and type designation. Standard length spools are 500 or 2500 feet.
