Light Archon BranchLine 12/2 Copper NM-B Cable with Ground

Light Archon BranchLine 12/2 copper NM-B cable carries the 20A branch circuits that do most of the work in a house: kitchen small-appliance runs, bath and garage receptacles, and general power. Every run ships as a continuous factory length with a yellow 600V jacket, two 12 AWG solid annealed copper conductors, and a bare copper equipment ground.

The yellow jacket follows the trade color code for 12 AWG, so inspectors and service crews read the circuit class at a glance. The slick outer surface pulls easily through drilled studs and plates, and production jacket print carries standard size and type text only. The listed maximum is 20A for this 12 AWG construction, which pairs with 20A overcurrent protection. Submit a quote list with mixed coil lengths and our supply desk confirms run counts and breaker matching at quote review.

Frequently Asked Questions

What circuits is this gauge rated for?
12 AWG copper NM-B pairs with 20A overcurrent protection, which suits kitchen small-appliance circuits, bath receptacles, and general 20A power. The listed maximum for this construction is 20A.

What lengths can I quote?
Factory runs of 15, 25, 50, 100, 250, and 1000 ft. Mixed lengths on one quote list are fine, and the desk can consolidate runs to cut waste.

Can this cable run outdoors or underground?
No. NM-B is listed for dry interior locations. For wet locations or burial, quote THHN conductors in conduit or a UF class cable at review.

Do you carry the two-circuit 12/2/2 construction?
Yes, as a quote-on-request item. Note the run count on your list and the desk prices the four-conductor construction separately.
