This is 6 AWG two-conductor NM-B cable with a 10 AWG ground, the standard sheathed wiring for dry, indoor residential branch circuits. The copper conductors are PVC-insulated with a nylon jacket rated 90°C, wrapped in a 30 mil PVC sheath, and the assembly is rated 600 volts. Ampacity is capped at the 60°C column per NEC, so it is sized for heavy loads like ranges, dryers and subpanels rather than general lighting. It is stiffer and harder to pull than smaller gauges, which is the main trade-off against 12/2 and 14/2 for routine outlet runs.

This is 6/2 NM-B non-metallic sheathed cable for residential indoor wiring. It is used in normally dry installations as branch circuits for outlets, lighting and other residential loads. It may be fished through masonry or tile walls where it is not exposed or subject to excessive moisture or dampness.
Each conductor is insulated with color-coded PVC and a nylon covering that meets the required thickness of Type THHN. The assembly is covered by a 30 mil color-coded PVC sheath. Conductor insulation and sheath are both rated 90°C.
The cable is rated at 600 volts. It is rated for a 90°C conductor temperature when dry, but its ampacity is limited to 60°C under NEC 2008 and NEC 2011. Its applications are outlined in NEC 2008 and NEC 2011 Article 334. It is lead free and RoHS compliant.
