The product, in the report: Electric Wire The manufacturers name is Southwire rather than Cerro Wire. The product is Simpull Romex home wire 12/2 with ground.
Installed new wiring in house and realized the hot (black)wire was slit down its length. Verified with an electrician that it wasn’t my fault and returned the wire to the store where purchased. I’ve contacted Cerro Wire to alert them as well.
