Sell Control and Instrumentation Cable in Tennessee

Multi-conductor control and shielded instrument cable.

Control and instrumentation cable is specified by pair count, shield type and voltage, which makes leftover reels hard to move through ordinary channels — and valuable to a buyer who reads the tag correctly.

We purchase multi-conductor control cable and shielded instrumentation cable from plants, integrators and panel builders across Tennessee. Individual and overall shielded pairs, triads and multi-conductor constructions, 300-volt and 600-volt, tray-rated and armored versions included.

Reading the reel

Pair count and shield type are the two facts that decide the value. A photo of the reel tag plus the printed legend on the jacket answers both, and a partial reel with a readable footage mark is easy to quote.

Questions about Control & Instrument

What details identify instrumentation cable?

Pair or triad count, conductor AWG, shield type, voltage rating and whether the shield is individual, overall or both. The reel tag usually carries all of it.

Do you buy armored control cable?

Yes, including interlocked armor and continuously corrugated versions. Note the armor type on the form.

Is thermocouple extension cable purchased?

Yes, when the calibration type is marked. The letter code on the jacket determines the application, so photograph it.

Can a partial reel be quoted?

Yes. Footage from the tag, plus an approximate weight, is enough to start.
