10/4 MC Cable – 4-Conductor Metal Clad Cable for 240V Equipment and Multi-Circuit Applications
10/4 MC Cable features four 10 AWG copper conductors and a ground wire, making it a versatile solution for multi-circuit 240V installations, including three-phase systems, multi-wire branch circuits, and certain commercial appliances. The interlocked aluminum armor provides mechanical protection and eliminates the need for conduit in most dry locations.
Common Applications for 10/4 MC Cable
- Commercial kitchen equipment
- Three-phase motors (in certain configurations)
- Dual-circuit lighting systems
- Subpanel feeders with shared neutral
- Industrial automation and control wiring
Benefits of 10/4 MC Cable
- Four Conductors + Ground: Enables multiple circuits or specialized 240V equipment
- Armor Protection: Reduces risk of physical damage and improves job site safety
- Neutral Compatibility: Supports shared-neutral applications
- Faster Installations: No need to pull separate wires through conduit
- Code Compliant: UL listed for a variety of approved installations
Frequently Asked Questions
Q: What is the ampacity of 10/4 MC Cable?
A: Typically rated for 30 amps, but actual usage depends on installation conditions and local code requirements.
Q: Can I use 10/4 MC Cable for three-phase power?
A: Yes, in specific applications where three-phase loads require four conductors, including neutral. Always confirm configuration compatibility.
Q: Is 10/4 MC Cable suitable for outdoor use?
A: Standard versions are for dry indoor locations. Use a PVC-jacketed MC Cable for outdoor or wet environments.
