6/3 NMD 90 Electrical Wire, 10FT, 300V 6AWG/3C Non-Metallic Sheathed Copper Cable for Permanent Indoor Wiring in Residential, Commercial, for Dry Locations,Rated Power up to 60 Amp,CUL Certification

NMD90 Wire for Canadian MarketThe NMD90 6/3 is a type of non-metallic sheathed cable certified to the Canadian Standard CSA C22.2 No. 48. The designation "6/3" indicates it contains three 6 AWG current-carrying conductors and one grounding conductor. Designed for fixed wiring within buildings, the "90" signifies a maximum conductor operating temperature of 90°C.
CUL CertificationModel: NMD90 - 6/3 (Three 6 AWG conductors with ground).Rated Voltage: 300 volts.Temperature Rating: Maximum conductor temperature 90°C. Minimum recommended installation temperature is -10°C for three-conductor cables (with suitable handling procedures). Material should be stored above 0°C for 24 hours prior to installation.Certification & Standard: Must comply with the Canadian Standard CSA C22.2 No. 48. Products typically bear the cUL or CUS mark, a mandatory requirement for the Canadian market.
100% Copper & Good InsulationMaterial: Made of 100% copper. Good Insulation: Individual three conductors are insulated with Polyvinyl Chloride (PVC), some with an added Nylon sheath for enhanced durability.Jacket: An overall flexible PVC jacket forms a flat cable configuration, ideal for routing between wall studs and joists. Jacket colors may be black, red, or others for identification.
Key Features & Advantages1. Compliance & Safety: Manufactured for use under the rules of the Canadian Electrical Code, Part I (CEC). The core safety certification is fundamental for acceptance by electricians and inspectors in Canada.2. Environmental Resilience: Suitable for exposed work in dry locations, and concealed work in dry locations. The wide temperature range accommodates Canadian climate variations.
Key Features & Advantages3. Installation Ease: The flat configuration and flexible jacket facilitate routing through wood framing, conduits, saving space and installation time.4. High Current Capacity: The 6 AWG conductor size allows for higher amperage, making it suitable for heavy-duty circuits in residential and commercial settings.
Wide ApplicationPrimary Applications: Used for permanent interior wiring systems in detached houses, apartment buildings, retail stores, and schools.Typical Uses: Dedicated branch circuit feeders for three-phase or high-power single-phase equipment. Supply lines for major household appliances like central air conditioners, electric furnaces, or commercial dryers.Feeder cable to a sub-panel in a garage, workshop, or home addition.Concealed wiring in dry locations (e.g., areas with concrete walls in basements). Limitations: NOT intended for direct burial, prolonged immersion in water, use as a service entrance cable, or where exposed to direct sunlight or subject to severe physical damage.
