Conductors such as Type USE-2, RHH, and RHW-2 find their primary application in direct burial scenarios, conduit installations, or other acknowledged raceways for services and feeders, following the guidelines outlined by the NEC (National Electrical Code). These conductors are suitable for use in wet locations and environments where condensation or moisture accumulation may occur within the conduit or raceway. When employed in applications specifying Type RHH or RHW-2, it's imperative to ensure that conductor temperatures do not exceed 90°C in both wet and dry locations. Notably, Type USE-2, RHH, and RHW-2 conductors carry a voltage rating of 600 volts.
