What Size Wire For 50 Amp Service From Main Panel?

THHN

Many of our customers here at Wire & Cable Your Way are looking for electrical wire to service their new backyard woodshop, like this one shown above.

Our customer Steve, a skilled project engineer sent in these pics from a home project he recently completed. Steve needed to run 50 amp service from his main panel in his home to a 100 amp breaker box (shown below) in his new shop.  Steve purchased our 6 AWG THHN/THWN Copper Building Wire for his project.

100 amp breaker box

Here is what Steve had to say:

“I put in a 100A box in the new shop, but am only feeding it from a 50A breaker in the main panel from the house service. My loads will be significantly less than that to run various tools individually, as well as a compressor and vacuum.  I  needed to run about 95’ of 6awg  240V 50A service from my house panel out to a new woodshop, and being able to get 100’ 6 AWG THHN/THWN spools at a good price from you worked out well!”

Steve buried the 6 AWG THHN copper stranded wire inside a conduit which can be seen below:

We greatly appreciate the photos, Steve, and glad everything worked out for you!

We cut 6 gauge THHN by the foot and offer it in several different colors at a great price!

Type W Power Cable & SOOW Portable Cords For Submersible Pumps

Type W

Sending a big thanks to a very kind & talented shop manager in Tennessee named Kirk.  Kirk sent in a few photos of a a Type W Power Cord and an SOOW Cable he used for a submersible pump installation.

The picture above shows a 4/0 4 Conductor Type W Portable Power Cable spread apart inside the cap of a Cornell 150 HP pump, which is used at a waste-water lagoon.  As you can see from the photo, all four conductors were separated apart for this submersible pump installation.  Kirk says they epoxy fill the junction box to eliminate leaks.

In the picture below, you can see the smaller 16/4 SOOW Portable Cord which is also used on this Hydromatic 60 HP.  This submersible pump is used for water waste as well.

16/5 SOOW

Kirk also left us a kind note saying, “Everything has been delivered in great shape and in a very timely manner. I will be doing business with you again in the future!”

Thanks, Kirk.  We are glad we can help and we appreciate you sending in the photos!

What is SEOOW PORTABLE CORD – 600V?

What is SEOOW Portable Cord – 600V?

Many customer browsing our store here at Wire & Cable To Go stumble upon our SEOOW portable Cord and ask us the difference between this cord & our SOOW Portable cord.

The main difference is in the construction of the cord’s jacket.

SEOOW- 600v  stands for:

S – Service
E – Thermoplastic Elastomer
OO – Oil Resistant Insulation & Oil Resistant Jacket
W – Water & Weather Resistance

The Thermosplastic Elastomer jacket is what sets this SEOOW apart from the SOOW portable cord.  This thermoplastic contains chemical resistance characteristics of PVC & flexible properties of rubber.  In more general terms the SEOOW is a high-quality flexible cord engineered with plastic characteristics and rubber jacketed material compared to an SOOW which is only made up of a rubber jacket.

The SEOOW is also more resistant to water than SOOW and has a higher temperature range of –50ºC to 105ºC.

Below are more standards on the SEOOW Portable Cord:

Standards:
UL Flexible Cord – UL Standard 62
CSA Flexible Cord – C22.2-49
NEC Article 501.140 Class I Div. 2
NEC Article 400
Federal Spec JC580
Passes CSA FT2 Flame Test
MSHA Approved
EPA 40 CFR, Part 26, Subject C, heavy metals per Table 1, TCLP method

SEOOW cords are durable, flexible & abrasion resistant.

10/3 & 10/4 SOOW Portable Cords for Pond Fountains

SOOW PORTABLE CORD

We just got these photos in from our customer Janice who runs a popular fountain business down in Florida.  Janice purchases our 10/3 & 10/4 SOOW Portable Cords for floating fountains her company installs in ponds.

Here is what Janice had to say:

“The SOOW Portable Cords run from the fountain in the water to the pond shore.  Then the cables are run through in-ground conduit to a fountain control panel and connected to the panel to supply power to the fountain.”

“The 10/4 SOOW Portable Cord supplies the power to the fountain motor/pump assembly and the 10/3 SOOW Portable Cord supplies the power to the fountain lights.”

Janice says once in awhile they run into trouble with some “locals” like the one below!

Welding Cable For 750 Watt Solar System

Solar Panel - Welding Cable

Wire & Cable To Go would like to give a big thanks to, Michael, a great customer in Arizona who purchased several different sizes of welding cable for a 750 Watt Solar System he designed.

Here is what Michael had to say about his solar panel.

“It cost me $3,000.00 for my 750 watt system at one half the cost.  A friend of mine bought a 1500 watt system 7 years ago and paid $14,000.00 for it and he installed it.   If you can build your own system you can save a lot of money.  When I build my house I will build a 1500 to 3000 watt system using the same components.   A stranger stopped by my place a couple days ago and saw my system and want me to build him one just like it. I plan on buying all my wire from you if and when that happens.”

The sizes of welding cable Michael purchased for the solar system & inverters were our 4/0 Welding Class K2 AWG Welding Cable Class K & 6 AWG Welding Cable Class K – all in both red & black.

Michael loved how we were able to cut the welding cable to the exact length he needed for the job as he did not want left over cable that would have gone to waste.

We greatly appreciate the pictures Michael and hope to hear from you soon!
