Product Overview
The key advantages of PV cables compared to normal electrical cables include:
UV Resistant: PV cables are typically designed to withstand prolonged exposure to sunlight without degradation, as they are installed outdoors in solar installations.
Weatherproof: PV cables are constructed to be weatherproof, and designed to withstand harsh environmental factors such as moisture, rain, and extreme temperatures.
Flexibility: PV cables are often designed to be flexible to facilitate installation and routing around corners and obstacles in the PV system.
High-Temperature Rating: PV cables are engineered to withstand high temperatures generated by sunlight and the electrical currents passing through them.
Insulation: PV cables are insulated to protect against electrical shock and short circuits. The insulation material used is usually cross-linked polyethylene (XLPE) or ethylene propylene rubber (EPR) to provide electrical insulation and resistance to heat and weathering.
Low Smoke Zero Halogen (LSZH): Depending on the PV cables, most are manufactured with LSZH insulation and sheathing materials to lessen the emissions of toxic gasses and smoke in the event of a fire, making them safer for indoor installations or heavily populated areas.
PV cables are also color-coded for easy identification (red for positive (+), black for negative (-)). These features are crucial for ensuring the safety and efficiency of solar power systems.
