Product Brochure

600 Volt. Copper Conductor. Cross-Linked Polyethylene (XLP) Insulation. High-Heat and
Moisture Resistant. SIM Technology® for easier pulling. Sizes 14 through 10 AWG also rated SIS.
Southwire® SIMpull XHHW-2® copper conductors are primarily used in conduit,
Cable Tray or other recognized raceways for services, feeders, and branch circuit
wiring, as specified in the National Electrical Code. SIMpull XHHW-2® copper
conductors may be used in wet or dry locations at temperatures not to exceed 90°
C. Voltage rating for XHHW-2 conductors is 600 volts. Suitable for use in Health Care
Facilities per Section 517.160 of the National Electrical Code where a dielectric
constant of less than 3.5 maybe specified. This cable is designed to be installed
without the application of pulling lubricant.
Southwire® SIMpull XHHW-2® copper conductors comply with the following:
• ASTM- B3, B8 (7, 19, 37, 61 Strands), B787 (19 Wire Combination Unilay Strand)
• UL Standard 44- NOM-ANCE 90° C
• Federal Specification A-A059544
• CT Rated Sizes 1/0 AWG and Larger
• National Electrical Code, NFPA 70- 2011 Edition
• NEMA WC 70 Construction Requirements
• FT4/IEEE 1202- Sizes 350 KCMIL and Larger
• RoHS/ REACH
Southwire® SIMpull XHHW-2® copper conductors are annealed (soft) copper.
Insulation is an abrasion, moisture, and heat resistant thermoset cross-linked
polyethylene (XLP). Conductor sizes 8 AWG and larger are marked sunlight resistant. Colors are
available and may be subject to economic order quantity.
