describe:

XHHW and THHN cables are copper or aluminum corrosion-resistant cables widely evaluated in power and control systems, with high temperature resistance, corrosion resistance and other characteristics. They are suitable for different installation environments and needs.

XHHW cable (cross-linked polyethylene insulated cable):

XHHW stands for cross-linked high heat-resistant wire, that is, cross-linked polyethylene high heat-resistant cable, which is commonly used in industrial, commercial and residential power transmission and distribution.

Structural composition:

Extension: Copper extension is usually used, which has good conductivity, and aluminum extension can also be used for some models.

Insulation layer: Cross-linked polyethylene (XLPE) is used as the insulation material. This material has very good high temperature resistance. The heat resistance temperature is generally close to 90°C (under normal conditions), and in some cases it can even withstand higher temperatures.

Outer sheath: According to different application requirements, the outer sheath can be made of PVC, polyethylene and other materials to protect the cable shell from mechanical damage, moisture or chemical corrosion.

Features:

High heat resistance: XHHW cable has excellent high temperature resistance and is suitable for use in high temperature environments.

Fire resistance: Able to withstand high temperatures and have good fire resistance, usually working in an environment of 90°C.

Chemical resistance and corrosion resistance: Cross-linked polyethylene (XLPE) materials can withstand a certain degree of chemical corrosion, so they are suitable for some environments with degrading gases or liquids.

Suitable for humid environments: Can be used in dry environments, suitable for underground power transmission or industrial plants.

Application range:

Power transmission and distribution: used for low-voltage power pipelines such as buildings, industrial facilities, power plants, and power substations.

Base system: used as main power or branch cable in the base system.

Industrial application: suitable for power connection between equipment, especially in occasions where high temperature resistance or chemical corrosion resistance is required.

THHN cable (heat-resistant cable):

THHN stands for thermoplastic high heat-resistant nylon coated cable, that is, heat-resistant and heat-resistant coated cable, which is commonly used for low-voltage power transmission in commercial, residential and industrial areas.

Structural composition:

Extension: usually copper extension, there are also aluminum extension options, providing good conductivity.

Insulation layer: Thermoplastic polyvinyl chloride (PVC) is used as the insulation material, which has strong heat resistance and chemical resistance, and the working temperature can reach 90°C (in a dry environment).

Outer sheath: The outer layer of the cable is usually wrapped with a coating to provide additional physical protection, enhance abrasion resistance and tensile resistance.

Features:

High temperature tolerance: THHN cables can withstand high operating temperatures, usually 90°C (in a dry environment).

Good protection: The outer coating increases the cable's anti-friction and chemical resistance mechanical properties.

Fire resistance: It can withstand fire to a certain extent, but does not have complete fire resistance.

Flexible: The cable is relatively soft and easy to bend and operate during installation.

Application range:

Power building system: used for internal electrical wiring of buildings, including power supply of main power supply and branch power supply.

Industrial power transmission: Widely evaluate power systems in industrial facilities, suitable for control, control and transmission.

Mechanical equipment connection: used for power connection between machinery and equipment.

Auxiliary line: suitable for power transmission in auxiliary power networks and systems.

Differences between XHHW and THHN cables:

Insulation material: XHHW uses cross-linked polyethylene (XLPE), which has stronger high temperature resistance and chemical resistance; THHN uses heat-resistant PVC insulation material, which also has certain high temperature resistance, but the overall heat resistance is slightly inferior to XHHW.

Temperature resistance level: XHHW cable has lower temperature resistance than THHN and is suitable for higher temperature environments. Outer sheath: THHN cables usually use coatings to increase resistance to mechanical damage and chemical corrosion, while XHHW usually uses more corrosion-resistant PVC or polyethylene outer sheaths.

Summary:

XHHW cable: Suitable for use in tough environments, with good high temperature resistance, corrosion resistance and chemical resistance, suitable for industrial and underground power transmission.

THHN cable: Mainly used for power wiring inside buildings, with good heat resistance and physical protection, suitable for ordinary residential and commercial power transmission applications.
