Our take on the Southwire 13055926 12/2WG UF Wire 100-Foot

Southwire 12/2 UF-B is a 100-foot coil of solid copper two-conductor cable with ground, rated for direct burial and wet locations. It is the standard wire for running a 20-amp circuit outdoors to a shed, post light, well pump or landscape lighting. Unlike NM-B (Romex), it can go straight into the ground without conduit, which is why it costs more per foot and is stiffer to work with. Electricians and DIYers rate it as reliable and code-friendly, but complain that the solid conductors and thick jacket make it hard to bend and strip in cold weather.

What reviewers say

Electricians and DIYers describe this cable as dependable and code-compliant for outdoor circuits. The common complaints are stiffness and the effort needed to strip the heavy jacket, not the electrical performance.

What people mention
  • FlexibilityCriticisedOwners say the cable is stiff and awkward to route, especially in cold weather.
  • JacketMixedThe thick outer jacket resists moisture and damage but is slow to strip cleanly.
  • Build qualityPraisedBuyers describe solid copper conductors and a durable jacket that holds up underground.
  • InstallationMixedStraight runs go easily, but tight bends and box entries take extra effort.

Questions and answers

Can this wire be buried without conduit?
Yes. Type UF-B is rated for direct burial and wet locations, so it can go straight into the ground. Check local code for required burial depth, typically 24 inches for a 20-amp circuit.
What is the difference between UF-B and NM-B?
UF-B has a solid, moisture-resistant jacket for underground and wet use. NM-B (Romex) is for dry indoor locations only and cannot be buried.
What size circuit does 12/2 wire support?
12-gauge copper supports a 20-amp circuit. The two insulated conductors plus ground suit a 120-volt circuit or a 240-volt circuit with no neutral.
Is the ground wire insulated?
No. The ground is a bare copper conductor, which is standard for this cable type.
How much wire do I need for a shed?
Measure the trench path plus extra for both ends, about 2 feet of slack at each. A 100-foot coil covers most single runs to a shed, post light or pump.
