10/2c TECK90 Copper Cable · 600 V Teck Cable

What this product is for

This TECK90 armoured cable is used for fixed industrial and commercial wiring where mechanical protection is needed. It is built for 600V power, control, and lighting circuits in exposed or concealed installations.

Use for

Use for cable tray runs, industrial equipment feeds, plant expansions, service connections, and branch circuits in wet or dry locations. Common applications include refineries, mills, manufacturing plants, commercial buildings, and general factory environments.

Avoid for

Avoid using this cable where a flexible portable cord is required, where a different voltage class is specified, or where project documents call for shielded, HL-rated, or low-smoke zero-halogen construction instead of standard PVC jacket TECK90.

Best for

Best for electricians and contractors who need a rugged armoured cable with copper conductors and aluminium interlocked armour for industrial wiring methods accepted across Canada.

Installed in

Installed in cable tray, trough, ladder tray, and exposed or concealed runs in industrial and commercial facilities. Typical installations include manufacturing plants, pulp and paper sites, mines, refineries, and utility or process areas.

Why this product exists

TECK90 cable combines copper conductors, insulation, inner jacket, aluminium interlocked armour, and an outer PVC jacket to provide mechanical protection and a practical wiring method for demanding environments. It is commonly selected where conduit is not the preferred installation method.

Compared with similar products

Compared with non-armoured cable, TECK90 adds mechanical protection for exposed industrial runs. Compared with portable cord, it is intended for fixed wiring. Compared with 1 kV TECK90, this version is for 600V systems. Typical ampacity guidance published by manufacturers for 10 AWG 2 conductor TECK90 with 12 AWG ground is 30A, but actual conductor sizing and allowable load depend on installation conditions and the Canadian Electrical Code.
