This 125 ft roll of 6/2 NM-B cable is a nonmetallic-sheathed electrical cable for residential wiring. It is used for branch circuits that feed outlets, switches and other loads. It can be used for both exposed and concealed work in normally dry locations.
The conductor is annealed (soft) copper, which is flexible, highly conductive and corrosion-resistant. The conductor insulation is PVC rated to 194°F. A nylon jacket protects the cable against chemicals, moisture and abrasion. The jacket is black for quick identification.
The cable is rated for 600 volts and an allowable ampacity of 55 amps. The 6/2 designation means 6 AWG with 2 conductors and 1 ground wire. A larger AWG number means a smaller wire.
