Thank you for your feedback we are happy to hear your are pleased with your purchase!
    4/0 Southwire quality meets NEC standards
    Purchased the 4/0 cable to use as a 200amp feed to a new sub-panel. Cable quality was of good quality and was exactly what I expected. The cable (500') length was accurate and there was about 10' extra on the spool. It took about 10 days for the order to arrive at HD in Wisconsin. There was about a 2 day delay caused by FedEx

    Product was excellent. Was disappointed that there was only 88 ft available when I needed 230 ft :-( Definitely need cable lubricant to pull three conductors in a 2 in EMT conduit

    It's wire. Not much to say. Arrived a bit faster than I expected which was nice.

      Best deal I could find on ALuminum wire. The 4/0 is thick. Needed for a 130 ft run underground in conduit. This is stiff and difficult to pull. Use liquid wax to make it easier. The only issue with the product is the outer sheathing. It did get nicked and scuffed through the top layer in a few places. It has a couple of layers so not a huge problem.

      Not as tough as I expected
      I had to purchase 65 feet of this cable. I installed it in 2" PVC conduit like the power company said to do and when installing it into the conduit the PVC shaves large chunks of the sheathing off the cable because the sheathing is really soft. I found it hard to imagine it could be direct buried with sheathing so soft. The wire does what it should but at almost $2 a foot at my store I thought direct bury cable would be tougher. We have very rocky soil so the sheathing was very important.
