The Ancor 12/2 AWG Safety Duplex Cable is a 100-foot spool with red and yellow conductors in a white common jacket.
A hundred feet of 12 gauge safety duplex covers one circuit out and back, or a pair of short ones. The larger spools suit a refit. This length is what goes in when a single pump, light run or accessory circuit is being added to an existing system.
The ABYC color scheme separates DC positive and negative from the black conductors used in AC wiring. That separation is the entire reason yellow replaced black for DC negative, and it matters on any boat with both systems in the same spaces.
Type 3 Class K ultra-flexible stranding resists fatigue from vibration and repeated flexing. The outer jacket strips easily while providing strong abrasion resistance through installation and long service. Explore more duplex and triplex cable.
