What is printed on the jacket? I'm looking to use 16 or 18 gauge, 2 and 4 conductor wire. This says that it is UL rated - is that UL number on the jacket?

BEST ANSWER: The actual ul # is not on the jacket, it has been tested by "Underwriters Laboratories" to pass safety standards, the actual UL # is unnecessary.

How do you prove it was tested by UL to pass those safety standards? Having the number on the jacket prevents issues like we had around the time that I asked that question, (which must have been months ago, by the way). We install commercially, and we were using a wire that did not have the UL number on the jacket. We had to return to a location to remove all of that wiring and replace it with one that had the correct UL number listed on it. Unfortunately, we ran into a very tough local inspector there. Having the UL number on the jacket, or at least documentation that we can carry with us, would help when we run into those types of inspectors.

BEST ANSWER: I would say it should be fine for a fresh water boat and possibly a ocean going vessel.

So So Wiring
The wiring works as designed. I thought the wires would be copper, doesn?t seem like it. The outer tubing sheath is a strange plastic that wants to tear lineally easily.

Perfect wire for speakers.
Works perfect. Ordered a 50' run for running in my ceiling and very easy to work with. This is the second spool I've ordered, the first was 100'.

Good cable if you use it for its intended purpose
This cable is a great deal. Small lengths of plenum cable are often expensive and/or hard to find. Cable is stiff but that's the nature of a plenum jacket. It's specifically meant for permanent installation in walls. Use it for this and you won't have a problem. Seems like a lot of people complaining about it being too rigid are trying to use it in an application it's not intended for. My only complaint is that given that it holds its shape, a larger centre spool would have been nice, as it ended up becoming kinda like a spring as I was working, but once installed this wasn't a problem.
