Solar Cables

Solar cables are critical conductors specifically designed for photovoltaic (PV) power generation systems. Unlike ordinary cables, they must be able to withstand extremely harsh outdoor conditions, such as intense UV radiation, high and low temperatures, rain, snow, and ozone erosion. Additionally, the sheathing material of solar cables has excellent mechanical strength and abrasion resistance, allowing it to withstand the squeezing, bending, and tensile stresses that may be encountered during installation and maintenance.
Selecting the appropriate cable size requires a comprehensive consideration of current, voltage level, and cable length to ensure that voltage drop is within an acceptable range. Internationally, the production and application of solar cables are subject to strict certification and standard regulation by authoritative bodies such as TÜV, UL, and IEC. Certifications like TÜV PV1-F and UL 4703 are important benchmarks for measuring cable quality and reliability, ensuring that solar cables can serve global PV power plants efficiently, safely, and reliably.
