How Constant-Wattage Cable Works
Constant-Wattage cable uses a fixed
resistance wire wrapped around
two main conductors (bus wires).
At specific intervals the insulation is
removed from the bus wires, forming
the Contact Module Points.

These Contact Module Points are
staggered along the length of the
cable. This creates consistent heating
circuits known as the Module Length.
When power is applied to the bus
wires each complete Module Length
heats at the rated wattage output.

The incomplete Module Lengths,
at the beginning and end of each
cable, do not heat. This allows the
“Cold” ends to be safely placed inside
of a controller or junction box.
