Made from tinned copper stranding, it provides maximum protection against corrosion and electrolysis. Its ultra - flexible (Type 3) stranding resists fatigue from vibration and flexing. This cable stays flexible even in extreme cold (-40 deg C) and can withstand salt water, battery acid, oil, gasoline, and UV radiation. It exceeds UL 1426 standards, and the premium vinyl insulation is rated at 600 volts, 105 deg C dry and 75 deg C wet.
Using this Ancor cable is straightforward. First, identify the red and yellow primary conductors according to your wiring needs. The white jacket can be easily removed to access the conductors. When installing, make sure to keep it away from sharp objects to prevent abrasion. For safety, always follow standard electrical wiring procedures. In terms of maintenance, check the cable regularly for any signs of damage, especially if it's exposed to harsh conditions like salt water or extreme temperatures. If you notice any cuts, frays, or discoloration, it's a good idea to replace the cable. Store the cable in a dry place when not in use to maintain its flexibility and performance.
