If you're performing a short circuit current study, I'm thinking you can use one of the standard library files for the in-field size as I don't believe it will matter much. But, curious how others would respond.
It may be more important to know the exact cable type if you are doing a load flow.

This looks like RHW type insulation
You should try several different types of conductors and insulation, my experience has been that other than AWG, Copper vs Aluminum conductor, and magnetic vs non-magnetic raceway the exact details like insulation and stranding don't really doesn't matter until you have hundreds of feet of conductor.
