Built to go in the ground

Our 8-2 Copper UF-B cable works as a feeder to outside post lamps, pumps and other loads, and for interior branch-circuit wiring in residential and agricultural buildings. The tough gray PVC jacket resists sunlight, moisture and fungus, so it can be direct buried without conduit.

Each run carries two #8 AWG stranded insulated copper conductors plus one #10 AWG bare copper ground, rated 40 amps at 600 volts and 90°C. Manufactured by Southwire in the USA and compliant with the 2023 National Electrical Code.

  • Feeder to detached garages, sheds and outbuildings
