Introducing Bulk, 14/3-Gauge Wires

What Is Bulk Wire?

Bulk wire is precisely what it implies - electrical cables sold in large quantities. Most bulk wires are available in pools measuring 100 to 1,000 feet, depending on your budget and the intended application. 

Bulk wires are designed for structured cabling. While common with outdoor applications, these cables are no less useful indoors. 

Our bulk 14/3 wire collection isn’t only ideal for budget shoppers. Each cable features unique specifications, determining its ultimate use environment and power-handling capabilities.

What Are 14/3- Gauge Wires?

Gauge, or American Wire Gauge (AWG), is a standard for measuring the diameter or cross-sectional areas of electrical wires in North America. It relates to the density of individual conductors, excluding the insulation and outer jacket. 

A 14 gauge cable is one of the most common wire sizes in North American households, making it remarkably versatile. 14 AWG-rated cords can safely power home lighting systems and general-purpose applications like televisions, videogame consoles, and smartphone/laptop chargers. 

The 3 in our 14 gauge wires denotes the number of conductors in each cable. While most bulk wires you’ll come across are available in 2 conductors (Hot and Neutral), we incorporate an additional Grounding wire for extra safety. 

Select our bulk 14/3 cables and cushion your home from unforeseen electrical hazards. Each wire comes in custom sizes, depending on your intended application. 

And due to their universal gauge ratings, there’s no limit to the number of appliances you can power with our 14/3 bulk cables. 

What Makes Our Bulk 14/3 Cables Outstanding?

Below are reasons that make our bulk 14/3 cables stand out;

1. 14-Gauge Options for General-Purpose Connections

We acknowledge that selecting electrical cables based on gauge considerations can be a serious undertaking. To fast-track your shopping experience, we avail our bulk wires in 14 gauge options, one of the most common gauge ratings in American households. 

A 14 gauge 3 wire is the smallest wire gauge typically approved for standard American home appliances. It strikes the perfect balance between lighter-duty cables like 16- or 18-gauges, and heavier-duty options like 12- and 10-gauges. 

Below are some common appliances you can power with our 14-gauge bulk wires;

• Lighting circuits, including ceiling lights, table lamps, and balcony lights
• Home entertainment systems, including televisions, woofers, and routers
• Computing devices, such as laptops and desktops
• Smartphone and laptop charges
• Smaller indoor appliances like ceiling fans
• Low-draw kitchen equipment like microwaves
• Security devices, including surveillance cameras and smoke detectors

Another way to determine the suitability of 14-gauge bulk cables is to understand your circuit’s amp ratings. To stay safe, only use our 14/3 bulk wires with 18-amp circuit breakers max. 

For 20-amp breakers or higher, our 12-gauge bulk collection would suit you better. 

While 14-gauge and 12-gauge cables are both common in American households, 12-gauge supports a higher power draw than 14-gauge cords. They’re better suited for more power-demanding appliances like refrigerators.

 If you’re struggling to choose between our 14/3 AWG wire and 12/3 cables, these pointers can help you make an informed decision;

• 12-gauge cords can safely power 20-amp circuit breakers
• 14-gauge bulk cables are ideal for 15-amp circuit breakers (but can support up to 18-amp circuits)
• 12-gauge cords can safely power 14-gauge appliances, while the converse isn’t true
• 14-gauge bulk wires can support 16-gauge and 18-gauge appliances without overheating

While some homeowners prefer the 12-gauge cords for general-purpose circuits, our 14-gauge bulk cables are remarkably safe and compliant with 15-amp circuits in most American homes.

1. 3-Conductor Circuits for Extra Safety

Safeguard your circuits with our 14/3 bulk wires, a collection featuring 3-conductor cables. All products in this category include three conductors - Hot, Neutral, and Ground. 

Americord.com acknowledges the safety concerns posed by the traditional 2-conductor cables. Even in the best regulated homes, a subtle voltage spike is all it takes for your circuits to overheat. 

The consequences of using 2-conductor wires are graver during periods of dramatic voltage surges, such as lightning strikes and load shedding. These unforeseen events can lead to costly appliance breakdowns or devastating home fires. Depending on the severity, you could be looking at grievous bodily injuries or even fatalities. 

While many of our competitors still avail their cables in the traditional 2-conductor options, our 14/3 gauge wires feature a grounding pin for an extra layer of protection. 

Our 14-3 bulk cables don’t merely keep your appliances connected. They channel stray current from the circuit to the ground, preventing devastating electrical hazards like shocks and fires. 

Three-conductor wires are particularly significant when working with appliances with metal casing. 

If a Live wire inadvertently touches the device’s metallic components, the current may flow in two possible directions - through your body or towards the ground. The ground provides a path of less resistance. Therefore, the Ground wire will safely channel the stray current away from your body and safely towards the earth below. 

Below are other ways our 14/3 amp rating bulk cables secure your circuits;

1. Triggering Immediate Circuit Trips

The Grounding wire in our 14/3 cables safely redirects current leaks to the earth below during voltage surges. 

As the ground readily accepts excess current, this triggers a sudden amperage build-up on the circuit. The rapid increase in current flow immediately trips the circuit breaker, disconnecting the power supply before significant damage can occur.

1. Stabilizing Voltage Levels

While voltage surges are highly unpredictable, using our 14/3 bulk cables can minimize their disastrous consequences. 

Each cord contains a Grounding wire that redirects excess voltage before it can wreak havoc in your home. The ground below accepts the excess current, restoring voltage stability in your circuits.

1. Guarding Against Lightning Strikes

Our bulk 14/3 gauge cables are specially engineered for lightning-prone locations. 

Each lightning strike discharges massive amounts of electrical energy. If the incidents occur close to home, some of the current may be channeled into nearby power lines and cause dangerous overvoltage. That’s where our 14/3 bulk cables kick in. 

The Grounding wire can dissipate massive voltage spikes from lighting strikes into the ground, safeguarding your electrical circuits and connected appliances. 

1. Minimizing Static Build Up

Power up your circuits with our 14 AWG 3 conductor cable and prevent static electricity build-up on appliance surfaces! 

Metallic surfaces are especially notorious for accumulating static electricity. If you’re working with appliances with exposed metal casings, using our 14-gauge 3-conductor cables can minimize hazards caused by this idle current build-up. 

Our 14/3 cables can minimize electromagnetic interference (EMI) too, making them excellent for sensitive equipment. 

Besides enjoying immense safety benefits, upgrading to our 14-gauge 3-conductor wires is also a significant step towards regulatory compliance. Modern electrical codes require 3-wire conductors for most receptacles, particularly kitchen and bathroom wall outlets. 

It doesn’t matter whether you’re moving into a new home or overhauling your current property’s electrical system. By switching to our 14/3 simplified cables, you score both in safety and regulatory compliance. 

Our 14-gauge 3-conductor wires support diverse applications as well. Besides using them for standard connections, 3-conductor cables may also support split-receptacle circuits.
