Solar DC Cables

Cable for the DC side of a solar plant: from the panels to the combiner box and the inverter, built to last outdoors for the life of the plant.

Rated voltage
1.5 kV DC (1.0 / 1.0 kV AC)
Conductor size
1.5 – 400 sq mm
Conductor
Tinned annealed copper, Class 5
Colours
Red and black

Overview

Solar DC Cables from Fortune Fittings Private Limited

Solar 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
