1. Wattage outputs depend upon the operating voltage being applied to the cable. Self regulating cables will also vary their wattage output along the heated length in response to changes in ambient temperature.
2. Maximum circuit lengths depend upon the cable's wattage output, and for SR cable and MI cables only, the operating voltage. Please review individual cable datasheets.
3. Factory terminated cables undergo quality testing before shipping from the factory. Standard cold leads are 20' and can be customized to any length.
