  Using 3-algebras we obtain a nonabelian system of equations that furnish a
representation of the (2,0)-supersymmetric tensor multiplet. The on-shell
conditions are quite restrictive so that the system can be reduced to
five-dimensional gauge theory along with six-dimensional abelian (2,0) tensor
multiplets. We briefly discuss possible applications to D4-branes using a
spacelike reduction and M5-branes using a null reduction.
