APPLICATIONS
This 300 kcmil UL44 copper XHHW / XHHW-2 wire is primarily designed for service entrance conductors, main feeders and branch circuit wiring in building electrical systems. It is widely specified for commercial buildings, industrial plant facilities and large residential projects, providing reliable high-amperage power transmission for both new construction and electrical system retrofits.

Branch Circuit Wiring
This 300 kcmil UL44 copper XHHW / XHHW-2 wire serves as a reliable feeder and branch circuit conductor, delivering power from transformers and main distribution boards to distribution cabinets for individual workshop production lines. Rated for 90°C in both wet and dry environments, it effectively withstands sustained heat buildup and heavy electrical loads from continuous industrial equipment operation, ensuring stable power distribution across the entire plant electrical system.

Conduit Wiring
This 300 kcmil UL44 copper XHHW / XHHW-2 wire is compatible with PVC, galvanized steel and metallic conduits, supporting both indoor concealed runs and underground duct installations. Rated for 90°C in wet and dry locations, it retains stable insulation performance even in enclosed raceways with poor heat dissipation, and its 300 kcmil stranded copper conductor provides ample ampacity for high-load feeder circuits routed through conduits in industrial plants and commercial buildings.

Cable Tray & Raceway Systems
This 300 kcmil UL44 copper XHHW / XHHW-2 wire fits ladder, trough and enclosed cable trays as well as electrical raceways, for both indoor and outdoor above-ground runs. Its 90°C wet & dry rating maintains stable insulation in densely packed trays, while the 300 kcmil copper conductor delivers ample ampacity for main feeder circuits in industrial and commercial facilities.

Underground Conduit Installation
This 300 kcmil UL44 copper XHHW / XHHW-2 wire is suited for underground conduit installation, compatible with buried PVC and galvanized steel conduits. Rated 90°C for wet locations, it retains reliable insulation in damp underground environments, and its 300 kcmil copper conductor supports high-amperage main feeders and service entrance circuits for industrial plants and commercial campuses.

What are people saying about us
Our customers have consistently shared positive feedback about our cables and services. Here’s what they say about US:


Luis Fernando Pérez - Venezuela - Office Building Project
The wires are of very good quality. The cables need to pass through long pipes and corners, and the cables are very flexible. We also ordered fire-resistant wires, which have been tested by a testing agency and found to be without problems.


Thomas Baker - USA - Factory construction
GERITEL WIRE's engineering team was very professional. They offered suggestions based on our cable requirements, and we found more suitable cable models. Subsequent operation has been stable without any problems.


Ricardo José Herrera - Dominican - Hotel Project
Due to the tight schedule of the hotel project, we had to adjust the usage quantity several times. GERITEL WIRE supplier was very flexible in terms of delivery and packaging, with fast delivery times. The wire reels were clearly labeled, making on-site counting and distribution very convenient.
