- What circuits is 12/2 NM-B used for?
- It is for 20-amp, 120-volt indoor branch circuits such as kitchen outlets, bathroom receptacles and dedicated appliance runs. It has two insulated conductors plus a bare ground.
- Can it be used outdoors or underground?
- No. NM-B is rated for dry indoor locations, such as inside walls, ceilings and crawlspaces. It is not for wet areas, direct burial or exposed outdoor runs.
- Does it come with a warranty?
- The listing states no parts or labor warranty. Any defect claim would rest on the seller's return policy rather than a manufacturer guarantee.
- How many wires are inside the sheath?
- Three: a black hot, a white neutral and a bare copper ground. The ground counts separately from the two insulated conductors.
- Is it hard to strip?
- The flat PVC jacket is designed to slit and peel, and 12-gauge solid copper strips cleanly with the right stripper. Use a 12 AWG notch, not 14.
- Does it meet electrical code?
- NM-B is a recognized cable type, but local code and inspection decide acceptance. Confirm the jacket markings and your inspector's requirements before installing.
