This product family includes robust cables engineered for the demanding conditions of port infrastructure projects in North America. All products carry UL or CSA certification and are designed to meet the requirements of the NFPA 70, National Electrical Code® (NEC®).
Application
These cables are designed for port ground-side infrastructure, including:
· Power distribution for yard lighting, gate systems, and buildings.
· Control and power circuits for substations and switchgear.
· Wiring within industrial panels and control centers.
· Direct burial applications for site power and lighting.
Standard
· UL Standards (Underwriters Laboratories)
· CSA Standards (Canadian Standards Association)
All cables are NEC-compliant for their recognized applications.
Features
· High Mechanical Strength: Resistant to abrasion, crushing, and impact.
· Environmental Resilience: Excellent resistance to moisture, oils, chemicals, and UV radiation.
· Durable Construction: Suitable for use in cable tray, conduit, or direct burial as per NEC regulations.
· Safety Certified: Flame-retardant and compliant with strict North American safety standards.
Products Family
The following NEC-recognized cable series are well-suited for port infrastructure:
Cable Series | NEC Type | Key Features & Typical Port Infrastructure Use |
TC (Tray Cable) | TC | A versatile cable for power, control, and signaling. Ideal for cable tray systems distributing power across the terminal. Requires a sunlight-resistant jacket for outdoor use. |
TECK 90 | N/A (CSA Standard) | An armored cable with an integral jacket and interlocked metal armor. Excellent for direct burial or exposed runs where mechanical protection is needed without conduit. A robust solution for harsh port environments. |
USE-2/RHH/RHW-2 | USE-2, RHH, RHW-2 | Thermoset-insulated cables (e.g., XLPE) rated for higher temperatures (typically 90°C). RHH/RHW-2 can be used in conduit or aerial applications, while USE-2 is commonly used for direct burial secondary distribution. |

Note on NMD Series: While excellent for commercial and residential building wiring, NMD (Non-Metallic Dry) cables are generally not suitable for the harsh, exposed environments of port infrastructure.
