ACWU90 armoured cable · 3 conductor #4 AWG aluminium · 600 V direct burial wet location · Various Mfg. ACWU3C4
What this product is for
This ACWU90 aluminium armoured cable is used for 600 V feeder and distribution wiring where the cable may be exposed, concealed, installed in wet or dry locations, or buried directly in the ground where permitted by code. It combines RW90 XLPE insulated aluminium conductors with interlocked aluminium armour and a PVC jacket for mechanical protection.
Use for
- Feeder runs to panels, equipment, and distribution points
- Wet or dry location installations
- Direct burial applications where ACWU is specified
- Ventilated, non-ventilated, and ladder-type cable tray installations
- Hazardous locations where ACWU90 is accepted by design and code
Avoid for
- Applications requiring flexible cord or frequent movement
- Installations where copper conductors are specifically required
- Projects where exact conductor count, bonding arrangement, or termination rating has not been confirmed
Best for
Best for contractors needing a mechanically protected aluminium feeder cable for outdoor, industrial, service entrance, or buried runs. A 3-conductor #4 AWG ACWU cable is typically selected for feeder applications that require three insulated conductors plus bonding, but final sizing must be confirmed from load calculations, voltage drop, and code.
Installed in
Commonly installed in commercial, industrial, agricultural, and utility-related projects, as well as exterior building feeds and service-related runs. Typical installations may include cable tray, exposed wall runs, below-grade routing, and weather-exposed areas.
Why this product exists
ACWU90 exists to provide a code-recognized armoured aluminium cable for locations where standard building wire in raceway is not the preferred method, especially when direct burial capability, wet-location rating, and mechanical protection are required in one cable assembly.
Compared with similar products
Compared with standard single conductors in conduit, ACWU90 can reduce field labour in some exposed or buried runs because the armour and jacket are already part of the cable assembly. Compared with copper armoured cable, aluminium ACWU is commonly chosen when lower material cost matters. As a rule of thumb, aluminium feeders may require more attention to termination compatibility and connector sizing than copper. Actual performance depends on installation conditions, insulation, layout, and local electrical code.
