Our take on the URD 2/0-2/0-2/0-#1 Syracuse Aluminum Quadruplex Direct Burial Cable

This is aluminum quadruplex direct-burial cable for secondary distribution: three 2/0 AWG phase conductors and a reduced-size #1 AWG neutral, rated 600 volts and 90°C in wet or dry locations. It is built for underground service runs and duct work, where aluminum quadruplex is the standard low-cost choice against copper and against triplex cable that lacks a separate neutral. The reduced neutral suits 120/240V single-phase service where the neutral carries less load than the phases. Buyers typically compare it with copper URD, which conducts better and resists corrosion at terminations but is heavier and harder to work in long pulls.

Pros
  • Three full-size 2/0 phase conductors plus a #1 neutral
  • Rated 600V and 90°C for wet and dry locations
  • Aluminum is lighter and easier to pull than copper
  • Neutral marked with yellow stripes or hash marks for identification
  • Suited to direct burial without conduit
Cons
  • Aluminum needs antioxidant and aluminum-rated lugs at terminations
  • Lower conductivity than copper, so it needs larger gauge for the same ampacity
  • Reduced neutral limits it to circuits where neutral load is lower
  • Cut-to-length orders mean no returns on trimmed cable

Questions and answers

What is quadruplex URD cable used for?
It feeds secondary distribution circuits, typically the underground service run from a transformer or meter to a panel. It works in duct or buried directly in the ground.
Why is the neutral smaller than the phase conductors?
The #1 AWG neutral is a reduced-size conductor. That suits single-phase 120/240V service where the neutral carries only the imbalance between the two hot legs, not full phase current.
Can it be buried without conduit?
Yes. It is listed for direct burial as well as duct installation. Check local code for required burial depth and any protection where it rises out of the ground.
How does it compare with copper URD?
Copper carries more current per gauge and is less fussy at terminations. Aluminum is lighter, easier to pull and the usual pick for long underground runs when sized correctly.
What temperature and voltage is it rated for?
600 volts, with a maximum conductor operating temperature of 90°C in both wet and dry locations.
What do I need at the terminations?
Use lugs and connectors listed for aluminum, and an antioxidant compound on the strands. Retorque per the connector maker's spec, since aluminum can loosen over time.
