Submersible pump cable buyers in Louisiana
Submersible pump cable is a small, specific family in Louisiana — irrigation, municipal wells, lift stations and plant sumps — and it is almost always over-ordered.
Start here 01
Sell submersible pump cable in Louisiana
Submersible pump cable is a 600 V flat or round assembly designed to hang in a well or wet sump, with individually jacketed conductors and an overall jacket rated for continuous immersion. Two- and three-conductor constructions with a ground are standard.
- Construction, size and footage, not weight alone
- Reel tags and jacket print travel with the lot
- Pickup planned around your site, not ours
Photographs of reel tags and jacket print can follow by text to 614-715-3047 or email to saleselectricalbuyers@gmail.com.

What this family covers 02
Submersible pump cable we review in Louisiana
In Louisiana the demand is agricultural and municipal as much as industrial: rice and crawfish pumping, irrigation wells, parish water systems and lift stations. Contractors buy in 500-foot coils and frequently finish a job with a partial coil on the shelf.
Identification 03
What identifies submersible pump cable
The facts that decide how a lot is read. Send what the reel says rather than a description from memory.
| Voltage rating | 600 V |
|---|---|
| Construction | Flat or round, 2 or 3 conductors plus ground, individually jacketed for immersion |
| Sizes we see | 14 AWG through 4 AWG, with 10/3 and 8/3 common in agricultural work |
| Conductor metal | Copper |
| Condition markers | Jacket flattening, water in the core, sun damage on stored coils, cut ends |
| What identifies it | Jacket print, conductor count and gauge, coil tag, and whether the construction is flat or round |
If a detail is unknown, mark it unknown. A stated uncertainty is workable. A guess that turns out wrong costs everybody a second visit.
Constructions 04
Submersible pump cable lots we buy
Read separately, because they are valued separately.
Flat 3-wire with ground
The standard agricultural well cable, usually in 500-foot coils, reviewed on print and coil condition.
Round submersible cable
Heavier assemblies for larger pumps and deeper sets, valued on gauge and jacket integrity.
Municipal lift-station cable
Cable from parish water and sewer work, often documented and in better storage than field stock.
Unused coils from cancelled jobs
The best version of this lot: sealed coils with print, no UV exposure, a known gauge.
How a lot is read 05
How submersible pump cable is evaluated
This family is read on gauge, conductor count and jacket condition, in that order. A sealed 8/3 coil is straightforward; an opened coil that sat in a pump house for three summers is not.
The construction matters too. Flat cable and round cable are not interchangeable in a well, so a buyer looking for one will not take the other at the same value.
Safety first. Cable pulled from a well has been immersed and may carry damaged insulation. Do not test it by energising it on the ground; describe the removal instead.

Questions —
Submersible pump cable questions
Do you buy used submersible pump cable?
Cable pulled from a well is reviewed as used material with the immersion and removal described. Reuse is limited, so the lot is usually read on copper content and jacket condition.
What gauges are worth collecting?
8 AWG and larger in flat or round constructions, in coils of 100 feet or more. Smaller and shorter pieces are only worth it as part of a bigger lot.
Is agricultural well cable different from industrial?
The construction is the same idea; the difference is storage. Farm coils sit in sheds and pump houses, so UV damage and water ingress are the usual findings.
Can it be sold with the pump?
Pumps and cable are separate lots. Cable is reviewed on its own because the pump's condition says nothing about the conductor.
