B= Bunched Strand: A collection of strands twisted together in the same direction without regard to the geometric arrangement. C=Concentric Strand: A concentric stranded conductor consists of a central wire or core surrounded by one or more layers of
helically laid wires.
RB= Rope Bunched Strand: Rope strands are assemblies of bunch-stranded members. RC=Rope Concentric Strand: Conductors are available only in the specific numbers of wires necessary to make up the
construction in concentric layers.These numbers are 7 and 19 conductor groups.
S= A single solid wire of the stated gauge size.
