Sending a thanks to our customer, James, for sending us this photo depicting the trench dug between his barn and his service pole.  We like the angle of this photo and how it captures two main points of connection - the barn and the service pole.  James purchased our THHN Copper Building Wire for the connection and ran it through a conduit which will then be laid in the trench seen above.

THHN Copper Building wire is very popular for this type of installation.

Are you looking for a multi-conductor cable with THHN wire?  Say you need 4 runs of THHN wire but want it all in one jacket, do you know which cable to look for?

We here at Wire And Cable Your Way often get calls from first time customers who know they need THHN wires but want it all in one jacket and are not exactly sure where to find this cable?

If this sounds familiar to you we recommend taking a look at our Tray Cable (THHN-PVC).

Our Tray Cable (THHN-PVC) consists of a strong durable jacket rated for direct burial that is filled with multiple conductors of THHN wire.  Being that it is rated for direct burial, you do not need a conduit.  Many of our Tray Cables also come with a ground wire.

The Tray Cable differs from standard THHN Building Wire in that THHN Building Wire comes in a nylon jacket that can only buried in a conduit underground.   THHN Copper Building Wire is also one single conductor.

If you are not sure which one is best for your project please take a look at both the categories which includes pricing and the different sizes:

Do you have a project that requires the use of #8 gauge stranded wire?  Trying to figure out what type of 8 awg wire you need & how much the electrical wire is going to cost?

If so, Wire & Cable To Go has several different options of #8 gauge wires to choose from!

1. Most popular 8 gauge wire we carry is a building wire called #8 AWG THHN/THWN-2 – Stranded Copper Building Wire.

Offered by the foot with a wide selection of colors, THHN comes in a PVC (polyvinyl chloride) insulation with a nylon jacket.  THHN wire can be used in a conduit but is not rated for direct burial alone. Our 8 awg THHN is also THWN-2 dual rated which means this conductor is appropriate for use in wet or dry locations at temperatures not to exceed 90° C or not to exceed 75°C in oil or coolants.  It is rated for 40 amps @ 60°C.
