Good stuff

Wire was exactly what I expected. Shipping time was on par for the distance shipped. A tracking number would’ve been nice once it was shipped but no problems at all.

Great value

I used this product to build an extension cable that allows me to power my RV from my F150 Powerboost's onboard 7.2KW inverter. It was such a good deal that I was worried about quality when I ordered, but I need not have. Nassau is delivering the real deal here - high quality cable that I expect will be safe and perform well for years to come. They also delivered reasonably quickly. Will buy from again.

What are the common applications of SOOW cable?

SOOW cables are flexible, durable, and resistant to harsh industrial environments. Common applications include:

  • Machinery in industrial environments
  • Outdoor events
  • Construction sites
  • Temporary power setups
  • Portable tools and equipment
  • Lighting fixtures in outdoor and industrial settings

  • Industrial equipment
  • Control systems
  • Portable tools and machinery
  • Temporary power supplies
  • Lighting installations
  • Sound and audio-visual equipment
  • HVAC systems
Is SOOW Cable Tray-Rated?

SOOW cable is not typically tray-rated despite having some common characteristics like oil resistance. Tray cables usually have thicker jackets and more robust insulation.

Is SOOW Outdoor-Rated?

SOOW cable is rated for outdoor installations, as outlined in the letter "W'' in its name, which stands for weather and water resistance. The cable is resistant to moisture, UV, and temperature fluctuations. The SOOW jacket is additionally resistant to oil. However, you should pick a cable with a better UV-resistant characteristic for installations directly exposed to sunlight.

What is the difference between black and yellow insulation for SOOW Cables?

Yellow SOOW cables are more visible than black ones, so they can be used in safety-critical environments. Black cables can absorb more heat than yellow cables when exposed to sunlight, which might be a consideration in outdoor applications. You can also choose to use black or yellow cable for color-coding purposes.
