This cable includes two-, three-, or four-circuit insulated conductors along with an equipment grounding conductor, and is designed for use in accordance with the National Electrical Code (NEC).
- Two-conductor constructions feature parallel conductors with a fire-retardant paper-wrapped ground wire laid between them.
- Three- and four-conductor constructions have insulated conductors that are either twisted together or laid parallel, with the ground wire similarly wrapped and integrated.
- All configurations are wrapped with a paper separator before the application of a durable PVC jacket.
Added Circuit Feature: Select models include two separate neutrals, enabling a single cable to support two independent circuits—ideal for locations, such as bedrooms, where shared neutrals are not permitted by code.

The Power of Color
Now you can tell 3-conductor NM-8 from 2-conductor at a glance. Whether you're an electrical contracting pro or an apprentice just learning the trade CerroMax•M makes it easy to distinguish 14/3 and 12/3 in a split second. The power of color makes it better for inspectors, too. When you see blue CerroMax, you know it's 14/3. When you see purple CerroMax, it's 12/3. Now that's innovation. CerroMax NM-B. The only brand with new color coding on 14/3 and 12/3.
