This is a four-conductor aluminum service entrance cable: three 4/0 phase conductors plus a 2/0 neutral, rated 600 volts. It is made for service drops, panel feeders and large branch circuits, and it is rated for wet and dry locations up to 90°C. Ampacity depends on termination: 150 A at 60°C, 180 A at 75°C and 205 A at 90°C. Aluminum is lighter and easier to pull than equivalent copper, but it needs antioxidant compound and aluminum-rated lugs, and it must be sized from the 60°C or 75°C column for most terminations. Buyers rate it highly, though a few report jacket nicks and bent strands on arrival.

Buyers rate it 4.7 out of 5 and mostly praise the conductor size, insulation and value against copper. Complaints center on shipping damage and stiff handling.
This is a 4/0-4/0-4/0-2/0 aluminum SER (service entrance) cable rated for 600 volts. It is used in branch circuits and panel feeders. It is designed for adverse weather and can operate at up to 90°C in wet and dry locations.
The cable has two 4/0 AWG aluminum phase conductors, one 4/0 AWG neutral conductor and one 2/0 AWG bare aluminum ground. The conductors are compact stranded, soft-drawn 8000 series aluminum made to ASTM B-801. They have XHHW-2 cross-linked polyethylene (XLP) insulation. They are cabled together with the bare ground and covered with a reinforced binder tape.
The PVC jacket protects the inner components from external forces. It resists oil, sunlight, water, flames, acids, chemicals, radiation, impact, abrasion and weather changes. Sequential footage markings on the jacket help identify length during installation.
