The MC AL Alumaflex 500-3 W/GRND conductor consists of a series of single, insulated, compact stranded THHN conductors. The conductors run parallel to one another and are encased in an interlocking aluminum armor to protect conductors from a wide range of hazards. The Aluminum armor is covered in a flame retardant and sunlight resistant PVC jacket. This cable can also handle relatively high temperatures up to 90°C.

This product can be used in a wide array of scenarios. MC AL Alumaflex 500-3 W/GRND is excellent for power, control, signal circuits, and lighting. The conductors can function as underground distribution cables for direct burial. MC AL Alumaflex 500-3 W/GRND is a good choice when distribution through concrete or cinder fills is needed. It can handle feeder and service power distribution assignments in residential, multi-residential, commercial, institutional, and industrial buildings. The MC AL Alumaflex 500-3 W/GRND can be fished or embedded in plaster and can also be used as an aerial cable on a messenger wire.
