Electric Heating Cable 120VAC 250 ft
This 120V AC electric heating cable provides freeze protection for metal or plastic piping up to 2 in diameter. It is suited for indoor installations where a 5 W per foot output meets the required thermal load. The 250 ft length covers extended pipe runs in residential or light commercial settings.
Installation notes for 7/16 in width cable
The cable installs directly onto pipe surfaces and is secured with approved tape or straps. A common issue arises when the thermoplastic elastomer shield is damaged during handling, which can expose the copper conductor. Ensure the power supply matches the 120V AC, 60 Hz, single-phase requirement before energising.
Limits of 5 W per foot output
The 5 watt per foot rating restricts use to freeze protection rather than high-temperature process heating. The cULus listing covers indoor applications only, so outdoor exposure is not supported. The fixed 250 ft length cannot be shortened or spliced in the field without voiding the safety certification.

Questions about this item
How can I confirm the cable is producing heat after installation?
Verify the circuit draws current at 120 V AC and 60 Hz; the copper conductor should warm evenly along the 250 ft length when energised.
What components are included and what must I supply separately?
The package contains only the heating cable; you must provide a compatible controller, power connection, and any pipe-mounting accessories.
Which length should I select for pipes up to 2 in diameter?
Choose the 250 ft roll when the total pipe run requires that length; the cable is rated for indoor use on metal or plastic piping up to 2 in diameter.
