can this cable be put in a pvc underground conduit?


Great question! No — 6/2 NM‑B (Romex SIMpull) cannot be installed in PVC underground conduit. NM‑B is not rated for wet locations, and the NEC considers all underground conduit to be a wet environment, even if it appears sealed. For underground runs, you must use UF‑B, USE‑2/URD, or Mobile Home Feeder, depending on your installation. Please let us know if you need help in any other way by contacting us at consumersupport@southwire.com.

No, this 6-2 NM-B cable is for use in indoor dry locations only. Outside conduits, whether underground or above ground, are classed as wet areas. A better choice would be either separate THWN conductors in conduit or direct burial 6-2 UF-B cable.
