**MAMETALINC** · 11-16-2011, 04:17 PM

It would be bx but in a much larger way , like 2 to 4 inch , we use tech to seperate from 5/8 bx

Are you talking about Teck cable? It's an armoured cable like BX, but also has a PVC coating, allowing it to be buried or used in hazardous environments. Comes in all the standard sizes. Used it up north on radar stations.

We bought a factory in our area and they were using it to run main power of the plant .they legally have to use teck wire for the armored part of it . Problem is when you want to skin it , processing is a little more work , hoppefully we just bought a new machine that handle it pretty good.
