I looked thru the Nat. Elec. Code and found no reference to a required type of wire in a submersible-pump well, other than the requirement that any wire in a wet location be made for that.
So what's different about what they call "submersible" wire?
Any reason why not to use underground feeder wire (UF), or underground service entrance (USE), or XHHW or even THHW?
Ever have an electrical inspector call you on your wire?
I'd prefer to get my wire from a wire retailer because it's cheaper. Probably get UF or USE for the thick insulation.
