Solar Cable / PV SOLAR CABLES
Solar Cable / PV Solar Cables
Applications
These cables are suitable for permanent outdoor long-term use, under variable and harsh climate conditions. They are designed and tested to operate at a normal maximum conductor temperature of 90°C and for 20,000 hours up to 120°C. Therefore, the expected period use is 30 years under normal usage conditions.

Key Highlights of Solar Cable
We engineer our solar cable for photovoltaic (PV) power supply systems with a nominal D.C. voltage of 1.5kV. They are essential carriers of power between solar panels, inverters and battery storage units. Whether needed for fixed installation or flexible setups like rooftop solar arrays, ground-mounted systems, and architecturally integrated PV solutions. Made with robust quality materials and pure conductors, these can withstand extreme weather conditions, mechanical stress, and long-term outdoor exposure.
We use highly conductive electrolytic tinned copper conductors to reduce power loss during the transmission of energy. We ensure maximum safety and long-term durability as we use insulation and outer sheaths made of cross-linked, halogen-free, and flame-retardant materials, offering superior resistance to fire, UV rays, ozone exposure, and chemical degradation.
Performing efficiently under harsh temperature conditions, our solar cables can operate continuously even at 90°C and are tested to endure up to 120°C for 20,000 hours, extending their lifespan to approximately 30 years under normal working conditions. Here are key properties of our solar cable that make it the preferred choice for our customers:
- UV and Ozone Resistance
- Fire-Resistant Properties
- Chemical and Oil Resistance
- High Mechanical Strength and flexible installations.
- Optimal Electrical Performance
