Tinned copper cable yellow 3/0 - 100 ft

This Ancor cable is 100 feet long, which is approximately 30.5 meters.

The conductor of this cable is made of tinned copper strands.

Tinned copper provides superior protection against corrosion and electrolysis, which is essential in marine environments where saltwater and moisture are ever-present. This extends the cable’s lifespan and ensures better conductivity over time.

This cable has a 3/0 AWG gauge.

The metric cross-sectional area of this cable is 85 mm² (precisely 85.01 mm²).

The insulation of this cable is yellow.

Yes, high-quality vinyl (PVC) insulation is specifically formulated to withstand marine environments. It is designed to resist saltwater, battery acid, oil, gasoline, heat, abrasion, and ultraviolet (UV) rays.

This Ancor cable features ultra-flexible stranding (Type 3). This design provides excellent resistance to vibration and bending, enhancing durability and making installation easier.

This cable has a nominal voltage rating of 600V.

This cable can operate at temperatures up to 105°C in dry environments and 75°C in wet environments. The insulation also maintains its flexibility at extreme temperatures down to -40°C.

Yes, this cable exceeds the requirements of marine standards UL 1426, ABYC, and US Coast Guard Charter Boat (CFR Title 46), confirming its reliability and safety for recreational vessels.

The nominal outer diameter of this cable is 11/16 inches, or approximately 17.5 mm.

The electrical resistance of this cable is 0.06 Ohms per 1000 feet.

This 3/0 AWG cable is made of 1,665 strands of 30 AWG copper, which contributes to its high flexibility and conductivity.

Yes, the vinyl (PVC) insulation of this cable is formulated to resist ultraviolet (UV) rays, making it suitable for outdoor use where it may be exposed to sunlight.

The insulation of this cable is made of high-quality vinyl (PVC).

This cable is designed for demanding marine electrical systems and is ideal for critical power applications, such as battery cables or high-power connections aboard.

Yes, with a nominal voltage of 600V, this cable is perfectly suited and safe for use in marine electrical systems of 12V, 24V, or even higher voltages up to its rated limit.

Yes, with its 3/0 AWG gauge (85 mm²) and tinned copper construction, this cable is perfectly suited for high-current applications such as connecting high-power batteries or starters, ensuring optimal conductivity and minimizing voltage drop.

When installing this cable, it is recommended to use marine-grade terminals and connectors suitable for 3/0 AWG gauge, and to crimp them properly to ensure a safe and durable electrical connection. It is also important to follow proper cable routing practices to avoid chafing and damage, and to comply with ABYC standards for marine electrical installations.
