Product Description
Overview
The KUPO KCWPVC1x38 Power Cable is a flexible single-core IV feeder for portable power distribution and fixed installation work. Its fine-stranded copper conductor helps the cable stay manageable during repeated handling, while PVC insulation and a PVC outer sheath give the jacket a clean strip, smooth gland fit, and dependable field durability.
Why It Matters
This 38 mm² size is useful when the build steps into heavier single-pole feeder territory but still needs a cable that can be managed by a working crew. The 600 V rating and 105 °C temperature rating make this size useful for professional power builds where the cable has to carry current confidently but still coil, route, and terminate without fighting the crew.
