Explaining What Makes SO Cord Different From SOOW Cable
Delco has been doing this for many years and just about every day it seems we are asked what the differences are between SO cable, SOW cable and SOOW cable. SO cable is an older version of this cable and was basically the initial classification for what today is known as service cord. The S standing for service and the O standing for oil resistant Jacket. Over the years, as technology advanced the W was added to the initial classification and that meant that the jacket was also now moisture resistant. The maximum voltage approval on any of the above cable types is 600 volts. If you must have a higher voltage rating you would want to look at a Type W or maybe even a Type G cable. Both of those would be rated up to 2000 volts.
The modern day cable is now commonly known as SOOW cable. The newest version now sports both an oil resistant outer sheath in addition to oil resistant inner conductors. The W still represents a water resistant outer sheath. Note we say water and oil resistant and not water and oil proof. Many folks inquire if this cable can be used in places where the material will be under water all the time. It is not advisable to utilize the SOOW cable for this situation as that is not what it is made for. Think temporary power applications like stage lighting or temporary generator usage etc. If the jacket gets wet every now and then is not nearly as bad as keeping it submerged in water. This also is true of the oil resistant quality of the cable. It is not recommended to keep this cable submerged in oil or any caustic material for that matter.
You can get SOOW cable on the small side from 18 gauge in the smaller sizes up to 2 gauge at the bigger end. Number of conductors can be anywhere from 2 conductors up to 60 conductors depending on how big the cable in question is.
