SOLAR CABLES
DESCRIPTION
Solar cable is the interconnection cable used in photovoltaic power generation. A solar cable interconnects solar panels and other electrical components in the photovoltaic system. Solar cables are designed to be UV resistant and weather resistant. It can be used with in a large temperature range and are generally laid outside. Sizes of solar cables from 0.50SQMM to 240SQMM. SOLAR Cable is available in three types of varieties:
Electrical Parameters
- Voltage Rating : AC-0.6 / 1.0 KV
- Test Voltage : AC 6 KV / DC KV (15 min.)
- Max. Permissible Operating Voltage in AC Systems : 0.7 / 1.2 KV Max. Permissible Operating Voltage in DC System
- Max. PV System Voltage : DC upto 2.0 KV possible.
- Spark Test: 6000 Vac (8400 Vdc)
