28828228 Romex Nm-b Electrical Cable With Ground, 12/2, 100 Ft.

Southwire Romex NM-B is a 100-foot roll of non-metallic sheathed electrical cable designed for residential indoor wiring applications. This 12/2 cable features two solid copper conductors plus an integrated ground wire, making it suitable for branch circuits serving switches, outlets, and lighting in new construction, remodels, and replacement wiring projects. The cable is engineered for use in normally dry locations, exposed or concealed, and may be fished through walls, ceilings, and masonry blocks where conditions remain dry.

The cable solves common installation challenges by combining solid copper conductors with a durable outer jacket that resists abrasion while remaining easy to cut to custom lengths. This reduces splicing needs, minimizes waste, and speeds installation. The integrated grounding conductor provides protection required by code, helping safeguard appliances and occupants from electrical hazards.

Features and Benefits

• Solid Copper Conductors: Type THHN inner conductors rated 90 °C and 600 V deliver superior conductivity, reducing voltage drop and supporting optimal power delivery to lighting and outlet circuits.
• Non-Metallic Jacket (NM-B): Durable PVC outer sheath resists abrasion and simplifies handling and installation in residential branch circuit applications.
• Integrated Ground Wire: Built-in grounding conductor meets NEC requirements and enhances circuit protection.
• Flexible and Easy to Cut: The cable bends smoothly around studs and joists and cuts cleanly to custom lengths, reducing material waste and installation time.
• 100-Foot Length: Ample coil length minimizes the need for splicing and is ideal for whole-house wiring, branch circuit extensions, and renovation projects.
• SIMpull Jacket Technology: Patented cable coating eases pulling, stripping, and installation for faster job-site work.
