Pacer 12/3 AWG Triplex Cable - Black/Green/White - 250'

The Pacer 12/3 AWG Triplex Cable in black, green, and white is a marine-grade electrical conductor designed for AC circuits in boats and recreational vehicles. This 250-foot spool of 12 AWG triplex boat cable delivers the conductor flexibility and corrosion resistance required for saltwater environments, making it the standard choice for marine electrical installations where reliability and longevity are non-negotiable.

The cable features finely stranded tinned copper conductors that prevent oxidation and corrosion—critical advantages in the harsh salt-air conditions of coastal boating. Tinning allows for superior flexibility compared to solid copper, making the 12/3 AWG triplex cable easier to route through tight spaces in cabins and engine compartments without kinking or cracking the insulation. The three-conductor design handles independent circuits simultaneously, reducing the number of cable runs needed to supply power throughout your vessel.

This Pacer triplex boat cable suits both weekend cruisers maintaining smaller electrical systems and offshore vessels with complex AC distributions. Whether upgrading a galley circuit, connecting new lighting, or running auxiliary loads, the 250-foot length provides adequate slack for most mid-size boat projects. The color-coded conductors—black, green, and white—simplify proper grounding and neutral identification during installation, reducing wiring errors and ensuring code compliance for marine electrical systems.

12 AWG is the industry standard for moderate-current AC circuits in marine applications, offering a balance between current capacity and practical wire gauge. For comparison, smaller gauges (14 AWG, 16 AWG) carry higher voltage drop over longer runs, while larger gauges (10 AWG, 8 AWG) are unnecessarily bulky for typical boat circuits under 20 amps. Pacer Group's U.S. manufacturing ensures consistent quality control and immediate availability.
