This is 10 feet of 8/3 NM-B wire with ground, a 3-conductor non-metallic sheathed cable in 8 AWG. It uses pure bare copper conductors and is made to meet National Electrical Code requirements for Type NM-B cable. The jacket is orange.
Each conductor has flame-retardant PVC insulation, and a nylon outer jacket resists abrasion. The ground wire is wrapped in kraft paper so it is easy to identify and separate. The cable is rated for 600V and for temperatures from -10°C to 90°C (14°F to 194°F).
It is intended for interior residential branch wiring in dry locations, in walls or in conduit. Uses include outlets, switches, lighting circuits, major appliances, dedicated circuits and subpanels.
