SEOOW Cable 600 V TPE Portable Power Cord
600 V portable cord with Class K copper conductors, TPE insulation and an oil-resistant TPE jacket. Size schedule covers 18–10 AWG with two- to six-conductor configurations.
SEOOW cable is a 600 V flexible portable power cord with thermoplastic elastomer insulation and an overall TPE jacket. It supplies portable tools, small motors, appliances and industrial equipment where the cable must combine flexible handling with resistance to oil, moisture and abrasion.
The conductor construction uses Class K stranded bare copper. The size schedule covers 18–10 AWG, including two-, three-, four- and five-conductor arrangements, plus a six-conductor 12 AWG configuration. Conductor colours identify the circuit functions, with a green grounding conductor in the configurations of three or more conductors shown.
The selected construction has a temperature range of -50°C to +105°C. TPE insulation and sheathing distinguish SEOOW from thermoset-rubber SOOW portable cable. Compare the materials and operating conditions together when choosing between the two families, especially where the route includes repeated handling, oil exposure or outdoor use.
Use the nominal diameter and weight table to check connection space and cable handling, and use the stated current-rating conditions when sizing the circuit. Severe quarry or mining duty calls for a dedicated heavy-duty cable selection. Send the AWG size, conductor count, cable length, jacket colour and equipment conditions for a TEBAOFLEX quotation tailored to the connection.

When comparing 600 V SEOOW thermoplastic elastomer (TPE) portable cord with thermoset rubber North American cords, evaluate these options: SOOW Cable 600V for Heavy-Duty Portable Power (600 V EPDM-insulated, CPE-jacketed thermoset cord for high-heat and heavy abrasion); SJOOW Cable 300V Portable Power Cable (300 V junior-service EPDM/CPE rubber cord for lighter portable hand tools and appliances). Match voltage rating, cold-temperature flexibility, and jacket material to your operating duty.
Construction
SEOOW uses TPE for both core insulation and the outer jacket. The illustration shows a representative three-conductor cord.

| Component | Material and construction |
|---|---|
| Conductor | Class K stranded soft-drawn bare copper to ASTM B174. |
| Insulation | Colour-coded thermoplastic elastomer (TPE). |
| Core colours | 2C: black/white. 3C: black/white/green. 4C: black/white/red/green. 5C: black/white/red/orange/green. 6C: black/white/red/orange/blue/green. |
| Outer jacket | Oil-, water-, moisture- and abrasion-resistant TPE; black, white or yellow. |
Applications
SEOOW portable cord is used for flexible equipment leads and temporary power connections within its electrical and environmental ratings.

- Portable tools, appliances and small motors.
- Industrial equipment and temporary indoor or outdoor power.
- Oil- and moisture-exposed equipment leads.
- For severe quarry or mining service, select a cable designed for that mechanical environment.
For portable cord letter nomenclature and European harmonized equivalents to 600 V SEOOW cordage, review these references: SOOW vs SJOOW vs SEOOW: What the Cord Letters Mean and Which to Specify (side-by-side breakdown of voltage class, TPE vs EPDM/CPE compounds, and temperature ratings); H05RN-F / H05RR-F Cable 300/500 V (300/500 V European harmonized rubber cable for export machinery and light portable equipment). Check AWG vs metric cross-section and plug compatibility before specifying.
