IllustrationOverview
Solar DC Cables from Fortune Fittings Private Limited
IllustrationSolar DC cables connect photovoltaic panels to each other, to combiner boxes and to the inverter. They spend their life outdoors, in sun, heat, rain and cold, so their insulation has to resist UV, ozone and weathering for decades.
We supply them with flexible tinned copper conductors and electron-beam cross-linked, halogen-free insulation and sheath, in red and black for easy polarity identification.
They suit rooftop, ground-mounted and floating solar plants, and are available in the common string sizes as well as larger cross-sections for main DC runs.
Construction
- Conductor
- Flexible tinned annealed copper, Class 5 (IS 8130)
- Insulation
- Electron-beam cross-linked halogen-free compound (XLPO)
- Sheath
- Electron-beam cross-linked, UV and weather-resistant XLPO
- Temperature
- Up to 120 °C operating; 250 °C short-circuit
Applications
- Rooftop solar on homes, offices and factories
- Ground-mounted solar parks
- Floating and canal-top solar
- Combiner box and inverter connections
