What is UL SJTW Certificate?

A UL SJTW certificate refers to a certification provided by Underwriters Laboratories (UL) for electrical cables that meet specific standards for safety and performance. Here’s a breakdown of the terms:

SJTW: This is a cable designation defined by the National Electrical Code (NEC). It describes the characteristics of the cable:

  S: Service-grade, meaning the cable is heavy-duty.
  J: Junior service, indicating the cable is rated for 300 volts.
  T: Thermoplastic, referring to the insulation material.
  W: Weather-resistant, meaning the cable can be used outdoors and withstand moisture and sunlight.

UL Certification:

UL certification ensures that the product has been tested and meets safety and quality standards.

For SJTW cables, UL tests include durability, temperature resistance, insulation integrity, and more.

This certification is commonly required for cables used in industrial, commercial, or outdoor environments to ensure they are safe and reliable.
