POWER SO CABLE DESCRIPTION

When it comes to a power SO cable description, “600 volt service cord that is oil and water resistant” pretty much covers it. At least, that’s what we at Delco Wire & Cable tell our customers. For those looking for the exact definition of the product, when broken apart, the acronym “SO” is defined as the following: S = 600 volt service cord and O = oil resistant outer jacket. One SO cable description that we often give is that of the 6/4 SO electrical cable. This cable is very popular; many generators run on it and it is used to run circuits and construction equipment. No matter the dimensions, an SO cable should be able to withstand extreme temperatures.

That means whether your cable is operating in temperature conditions that plummet to -40 degrees Celsius or rise to +90 degrees Celsius, the cable will keep its integrity intact. Use power SO cables for portable power. Take a look at the size of the equipment you are looking to use before you choose your type of SO cable. Our ampacity table can help you decide which size to use. You can view our welding cable & ampacity table on this website.
