Overview
The 3M BCCO CL2 75C MT96 AWM 2912 flat ribbon cable is a UL-listed, power-limited circuit cable rated for general-purpose internal wiring and component interconnection. With 28AWG stranded conductors and a flat profile, this cable meets National Electrical Code Article 725 (CL2) classification, making it compliant for Class 2 control circuits. The flat ribbon design reduces installation footprint while maintaining electrical performance in temperature ranges up to 75°C.
Key Features
- CL2/FT1 Rated: Meets NEC Article 725 Class 2 requirements for power-limited circuits and Canadian FT1 flammability standards
- 28AWG Stranded Copper: Flexible stranded conductors for easier termination and reliable signal transmission
