Overview

The Southwire 13056722 10/2WG UF wire is a flexible underground feeder designed for direct burial projects. With a durable plastic jacket and copper conductors, this cable is built to handle outdoor lighting and various outdoor loads from damp to dry environments. It’s UL Listed and CSA Certified, giving you confidence in quality for long-term outdoor installations.

Why this cable fits outdoor, underground needs

Ideal for wiring that runs underground to feed lighting fixtures, exterior outlets, pumps, or similar outdoor equipment. The jacket is engineered to withstand moisture, dust, and prolonged sun exposure, helping the cable stay resilient over time in exposed settings. Cut lengths are available to match your project’s exact measurements, reducing waste and simplifying installation.

• Direct burial capability makes it suitable for underground runs to outdoor loads.
• Plastic jacket provides moisture resistance and sun exposure tolerance for exterior use.
• Copper conductors ensure solid, efficient electrical performance.
• Available in 50 ft lengths with cut-length options for a tidy installation.
• Rated for temperatures up to 90°C (194°F) and meeting relevant safety standards.

Key specs and standards

Two insulated conductors with a bare ground (10/2 with ground) configuration is typical for this type of underground feeder. The cable is listed to UL standards and CSA certified, aligning with JC-30B, ASTM B-3, and ASTM B-8 references for industrial-grade durability. The jacket’s sunlight resistance supports outdoor use across seasons, while the overall build is designed for long-lasting performance in damp, moist, wet, or even corrosive locations.

Practical installation ideas

Think about routing from a main panel to an exterior lighting bank, a fountain pump, or an outdoor outlet array. Plan for direct burial where allowed, keep a tidy trench, and use appropriate protective measures where the cable transitions through joists or landscaping. When measuring, consider potential future expansion and leave a little extra length for future adjustments.
