Fixture Wire TFFN 16 AWG

This fixture wire carries a TFFN trade designation with a 16 AWG stranded copper conductor. It is supplied on a 500 ft spool for electrical contractors and maintenance teams pulling circuits through conduit. The single conductor is rated for 600V AC service.

Nylon jacket over PVC insulation

A nylon jacket surrounds the PVC insulation to resist abrasion and chemical exposure during installation. The orange colour provides quick visual identification in crowded raceways. The combined jacket and insulation yield a nominal outside diameter of 0.1 in.

600V AC rating and conduit use

The wire is rated for 600V AC and intended for installation in conduit or other recognised raceways. It is not rated for direct burial, sunlight exposure or use as a flexible cord. The 26-strand construction supports pulling through bends but does not suit repeated flexing applications.

Questions about this item

Will the nylon jacket or PVC insulation need replacement if pulled through conduit?

The nylon jacket resists abrasion while the PVC insulation handles 600V AC; both are rated for the life of the installation when installed correctly.

What limits how much current the 16 AWG stranded conductor can carry continuously?

The 16 AWG stranded copper conductor with 26 strands and 0.1 in outside diameter determines the ampacity ceiling under sustained load.

Does the wire run hot or draw extra power when energised at 600V AC all day?

The wire itself adds negligible heat or power draw; temperature rise depends on the load current and the surrounding conduit fill.
