Ancor Red/Yellow 14/2 AWG Flat Safety Duplex Cable 500-Foot

The Ancor Red/Yellow 14/2 AWG Flat Safety Duplex Cable is a 500-foot spool in a white common jacket, with Type 3 Class K stranding.

Fourteen gauge duplex covers the light end of a boat's DC circuits: cabin lighting, small pumps, instrument feeds and low-draw accessories. It is also the gauge most likely to be undersized by mistake, since a short 14 gauge run is fine and the same circuit taken forward and back is not.

Five hundred feet is a full-rewire quantity, and light circuits are where the footage goes on any boat. A cabin has far more lighting and accessory runs than heavy circuits, so this is the spool that empties first.

Red and yellow follows ABYC safety coding, with the white common jacket identifying it from outside without stripping. Type 3 Class K ultra-flexible tinned copper stranding resists corrosion, vibration and flexing fatigue, and the insulation is rated 600V, 105°C dry and 75°C wet.
