Notes on this cross
- SAB numbers its VFD cable in the 356xxxxx range. Part number 35681404 is the 14 AWG 3 conductor VFD XLPE TR, which crosses to Tekima CV04G250_0365S.
- Both lines use thicker cross linked insulation for lower capacitance and better corona resistance. The constructions are closely comparable.
- SAB's stated advantage is custom cable in 3 to 4 weeks. Where the requirement is genuinely a special construction rather than a catalog size, that is a fair fight and not always a cross opportunity.
Check the UL listing before you substitute
Tekima builds two low-capacitance VFD families and they are not interchangeable.
- 365S is UL Listed Type TC-ER (file E361258), XHHW-2, 600/1000V, direct burial, sunlight resistant, oil resistant I and II, FT4/IEEE 1202, WTTC, c(UL) CIC/TC-ER, and MTW 600V. This is the series that substitutes for competitor tray cable.
- 361S is c(UR)us Recognized under AWM Style 2570 (file E314444) and carries an 80°C rating at 1000V on the UL side. It is not tray cable. Use it inside enclosures and machinery per NFPA 79 and UL 508A, not in an exposed tray run.
Every cross on this page is to 365S. If a quote comes back referencing 361S for a tray application, it is the wrong part.
