Light Archon SolidCore 12 AWG Solid Copper THHN Wire
Reviewed pricing, lead time, freight, and final configuration are confirmed during quote review before order release.
Light Archon SolidCore is 12 AWG solid copper THHN building wire on 500 ft spools, the conductor of choice where devices terminate directly on the wire: pigtails, switch legs, and conduit branch circuits that land on screw terminals and push-in connectors. Four jacket colors keep circuit identification clean.
The solid annealed copper conductor seats firmly under device terminals without frayed strands, and the color coded PVC insulation with nylon outer cover is heat and moisture resistant, listed for wet or dry locations at 600V and rated to 90C per the published listing. The published maximum for this size is 30A; termination temperature usually governs, so the desk confirms conductor sizing per NEC tables at quote review.

Installation Notes
- Size conductors per NEC ampacity tables for the termination temperature and conditions of use.
- Solid conductors suit direct device terminations; do not re-terminate work-hardened ends, trim back and re-strip.
- Confirm conductor count and conduit fill at quote review for multi-circuit raceways.
- Green jackets serve equipment ground runs; White serves grounded conductors per NEC color conventions.
- Multi-spool contractor sets and other put-ups are quoted on request.
Warranty and Support
- Backed by the Light Archon trade supply program; warranty terms are confirmed at quote review.
- Submittal sheets and takeoff review support are available from our electrical supply desk.
Frequently Asked Questions
Solid or stranded: which do I quote?
Solid 12 AWG lands directly on device screw terminals and push-in connectors without pigtail crimps, which is why service and device-heavy work prefers it. For long conduit pulls, the stranded Feederline program pulls easier; many jobs quote both.
What circuits is this gauge rated for?
The published maximum for 12 AWG THHN is 30A, but termination temperature usually limits branch circuits to 20A per NEC. The desk confirms sizing against your circuit schedule at quote review.
Is this rated for wet locations?
Yes. The construction is listed for wet or dry locations at 600V per the published listing, which suits conduit runs indoors and out.
Which colors are stocked?
Black, White, Green, and Orange on 500 ft spools. A three-color multi-spool contractor set and other put-ups are quoted on request.
