This is an 8/2 AWG duplex boat cable with red and yellow color-coded conductors, sold in a 250-foot length. It is used in low voltage AC applications and in DC circuits. Pacer manufactures it in the USA.
The conductors are finely stranded, annealed Type III tinned copper (ASTM B172 Class K). This keeps the cable flexible and helps prevent corrosion. The PVC jacket is flexible and keeps moisture out. The spaces between the wires are filled during extrusion, so no room is left for moisture or air.
The interior wires have a talcum powder coating, which lets the outer jacket be removed easily. The cable resists acid, alkali, abrasion, flame, gasoline, oil and moisture. It exceeds UL, ABYC and NMMA requirements.
