Raychem Self-Regulating Heating Cable 50 ft
This Raychem self-regulating heating cable is designed for freeze protection and temperature maintenance on pipes or vessels in residential and commercial settings. It delivers 6 watts per foot at 40 degrees Fahrenheit and operates on 120 volts AC. The cable length is 50 feet and features a conductive carbon core with a rubberized polymer cover for indoor and outdoor use.
Verify voltage and circuit length before
Confirm your supply is 120 volts AC and that the planned circuit does not exceed the 200 foot maximum circuit length. The cable draws 0.05 amps per foot at 40 degrees Fahrenheit and requires a hardwired connection with no plug supplied. Ensure the operating range between minus 40 and 150 degrees Fahrenheit suits the intended environment.
Durable construction for direct burial
The two conductor design uses conductive carbon material inside a rubberized polymer jacket that resists moisture and abrasion. Because the cable is self-regulating, its heat output adjusts automatically to surrounding temperature without external controls. Hardwired installation means you must provide suitable junction boxes and connections rated for the environment.

Questions about this item
What comes in the box and do I need a separate plug or controller?
The package includes the 50 ft self-regulating heating cable only; it is hardwired with no NEMA plug and no thermostat or controller is included.
Should I choose a different length or voltage for a longer run?
The cable is rated 120 V AC with a maximum circuit length of 200 ft, so up to four 50 ft sections can be combined on one circuit if local code permits.
What does 6 W per foot at 40 °F mean once the cable is installed?
At 40 °F the cable draws about 0.05 A per foot, producing 6 W per foot; output automatically decreases as temperature rises toward the 150 °F maximum operating limit.
