12-3030 Insulated conductors in boxes, cabinets, or fittings

Why would we need it?

• Can be used when conductors are connected to different sources of voltage and are functionally associated, for example:
  • Indicating devices such as pilot lights and alarms; or
  • Control circuits of standby power systems, industrial control panels, and adjustable speed drives

• Cost effective alternative to installations in conduit.

Applications:

• For exposed and concealed wiring in wet or dry locations
• For use in ventilated, non-ventilated, and ladder-type cable trays
• For power, control and signal branch circuits for commercial, industrial, institutional and multi-residential buildings.
• LED lighting control and 0-10V dimming
