SO Cord And SOOW Cord And The Differences Between The Two
We have been doing this for many years and seemingly on a daily basis we are questioned what the differences are between SO cable, SOW cable and SOOW cable. SO cable is an older version of this cable and for the most part was the original call out for what we see today as service cord. The S stands for service and the O stands for oil resistant Jacket. Over the years, as technology moved forward the W was added to the original call out and that meant that the outer sheath was also now water resistant. The highest voltage rating on any of the above call outs is 600 volts. If you have to have more on your voltage rating you would need to look at a Type W or possibly even a Type G cable. Each of these would be good up to 2000 volts.
Today's version is now commonly known as SOOW cable. The newer type now has both an oil resistant outer sheath in addition to oil resistant internal conductors. The W still stands for a water resistant outer sheath. Note we say water and oil resistant and not water and oil proof. A lot of folks inquire if this cable can be used in situations where the material will be under water 24/7. It is not advisable to use the SOOW cable in this environment as this is not what it is designed for. Think transitory power applications like stage lighting or temporary generator use etc. If the jacket gets wet occasionaly is much different than keeping it submerged in water. This also is true of the oil resistant quality of the cable. It is not advisable to keep this cable submerged in oil or any acidic substance for that matter.
SOOW cable is available on the small side from 18 gauge in the smaller sizes up to 2 gauge at the bigger end. Conductor counts can be anywhere from 2 conductors up to 60 conductors depending on how big the cable in question is.
