<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>Standard 12\/2 MC has three copper wires – a hot, a neutral, and a green ground – requiring three terminations. 12\/2 MCAP has two copper wires and one aluminum bond wire. The aluminum bond wire is cut flush with the armor, where the armor becomes the equipment ground when used with MCI-A fittings creating a superior ground path versus traditional MC or AC.<\/p>\n
The NEC approved armor grounding path is safer and more reliable than traditional manual ground wire make-ups.\u00a0Southwire\u2019s MCAP\u00ae\u00a0<\/sup>Cable is UL listed to reduce labor costs and increase productivity by simplifying the ground make-up and termination process. Allowing for an improved installation.<\/p>\n
