What are the three conductors in this cable?

Two 4/0 aluminum phase conductors and one 2/0 aluminum neutral, twisted into a triplex assembly.

Can it be buried directly in the ground?

Yes. It is listed for direct burial as well as installation in duct.

What voltage and temperature is it rated for?

600V with a maximum operating temperature of 90°C, in wet or dry locations.

Can I use it for a 200A service?

Two 4/0 aluminum conductors are commonly used for 200A residential service, but local code and the AHJ decide. Confirm ampacity and derating with your electrician.

Yes. Use lugs and connectors rated for aluminum, and apply antioxidant compound to the stripped conductors.

Is it copper or aluminum?

Aluminum. That makes it lighter than copper but requires aluminum-rated terminations.

Our take on the 100' Sweetbriar Triplex Aluminum Cable URD Direct Burial 4/0-4/0-2/0

This is 100 feet of Nassau Sweetbriar triplex aluminum URD cable, built for secondary distribution runs and rated 600V with a 90°C maximum conductor temperature. The three conductors are two 4/0 aluminum phases and a 2/0 aluminum neutral, twisted into a triplex assembly that installs in duct or direct burial. It suits service drops, sub-panel feeds, outbuildings and meter-to-panel runs where aluminum is acceptable. Against copper URD it is lighter and easier to pull, but it needs antioxidant compound and aluminum-rated lugs at every termination.
