From my house to my detached garage I have aluminum wire run. On the wire it is printed 2x2 + 4 AWG. There are 3 wires coming into my subpanel, 2 hots and one nuetral. Does this mean that the hot wires are number 2 guage and the neutral is number 4? Most of the writing on the wire is rubbed off, but it also says XLPE and phase conductor 2. I could barely read the manufacturere name which is Centelsa. I went to their website but it was not much help.

After looking up URD wire, I believe you are right. Thank you. Now, this 100A subpanel is about 120 feet from the main panel. Is this wire size OK? THanks again.
