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.
