Unless you're using this for direct burial or outdoor applications, just be cautioned that it's extremely annoying to work with. Can you make it work for projects inside the home? Yes, but you will use profanity and probably slice open the individual sheathing multiple times.

100% correct. I hate working with UF more than any other wire type.
I'm considering using this to run power from some solar panels, over to the house. For now, 2x410W panels. I have about 50' to get from the panels to the side of the house. Then will probably need another ~50' to get to the garage.
Anyone have any thoughts as to why this might not be good to use?
-Open Circuit Voltage 45.92V -Max Power 410W -Max Power Voltage 38.08V -Max Power Current 10.77A
I'd like to run them in parallel, so I'll be at ~40V and ~22A maximum (may add another 1-2 panels in the future, though). Based on current setup, seems like I'm on the threshold between 12AWG and 10AWG.
Amazon has the 10/2 for $72.30... Close to the lowest price since April 2021.
Run conduit and pull individual conductors cable ...youre welcome
, thanks ;-).
Yeah I started looked at individual conductors also. I'll price those out and see. PVC is cheap enough, and I believe that meets NEC for above AND below ground.
Going to see what I find that's made in USA. That's something that appeals to me about the SouthWire/Romex/Woods etc. brands.
This is outdoor rated for burial and wet locations. Still can be used anywhere you need to provide 20 amps of electrical service.

Both show $74.00 for me, for pickup or delivery… Either way it's still cheaper on Amazon.
