VNTC cable or SO cable?

Another question we often get is what is different between VNTC cable and SO cable? VNTC stands for vinyl nylon tray cable. This type of cable is quite different from SO and SOOW cable. The SO cable is designed for temporary power whereas the VNTC is for permanent installation. This type of tray cable is also generally approved for direct burial applications and is usually sunlight resistant and weather proof.

SO cable if left out in the sun will eventually crack and dry rot. While the SOOW version of this cable is water resistant it is not water proof, which means it is not recommended to use this cable for applications where the cable may be continually submerged.

We have specifications you can look at on our VNTC cable here. Delco stocks a wide variety of tray cable and SO cable. Feel free to give us a call at 800-714-9473 if you have any questions or needs for either of these products.
