Aluminum Service Entrance

Aluminum SER service entrance cable combines compact stranded Alumaflex 8000 series aluminum conductors with XHHW-2 (XLPE) or THHN/THWN insulation under a sunlight-resistant gray PVC jacket, engineered for reliable power delivery from the service drop to the meter and panel. This professional-grade 600V-rated cable operates at temperatures up to 90°C and features an insulated neutral, bare ground, and reinforced construction suitable for wet and dry locations. Certified to UL 44, UL 83, and UL 854 with NEC compliance and RoHS-2 certification, its lighter aluminum construction offers significant cost savings. Ideal for residential and light commercial service entrance and panel feeder applications above ground.
