THHN wire is the most common type of single conductor electrical wire used in the
industry. You could possibly buy THHN, THWN, THW, THHW or THWN-2. Years ago
each type was made for each specific installation, but nowadays the standard way to
manufacture and purchase it is to buy the multi-rated THHN/THWN-2 version as
a universal building wire.
