Solar Cable Applications

Solar UL Cable 12 AWG is a type of electrical cable specifically designed for use in photovoltaic (PV) systems, commonly known as solar power systems. It meets critical safety standards set by Underwriters Laboratories (UL), a safety organization in the United States. 

 

Solar UL Cable 12 AWG is a reliable and secure choice for various applications throughout your solar power system

 

  • Solar Panel Interconnection: This cable is ideal for connecting individual solar panels together within a solar array. Whether you're installing a rooftop system or a large-scale solar park, Solar UL Cable 12 AWG efficiently transmits power between your solar panels.

 

  • Module String Connections: In larger solar systems, solar panels are often wired together in groups called strings. Solar UL Cable 12 AWG can be used to connect these strings to each other, ensuring efficient power collection.

 

  • Inverter Connection: The inverter is a key component in your solar power system, converting DC (direct current) electricity from the solar panels into AC (alternating current) electricity for your home or business. Solar UL Cable 12 AWG can be used to safely connect the solar panel array to the inverter.

Solar Cable Features

Solar UL Cable 12 AWG is a high-performance cable specifically designed for photovoltaic (PV) systems, commonly known as solar power systems. It combines key features to ensure efficient power transmission, long-lasting durability, and easy installation:

 

  • Superior Conductivity: Manufactured with high-quality copper conductors, Solar UL Cable 12 AWG boasts exceptional conductivity. This translates to minimal power loss as electricity travels through the cable, maximizing the output of your solar panels.

 

  • Enhanced Durability: UL Listed for outdoor use, Solar UL Cable 12 AWG features a UV-resistant jacket, typically made of cross-linked polyethylene (XLPE). This protects the cable from sun damage and degradation, ensuring reliable performance for years to come, even in harsh weather conditions.

 

  • Simplified Installation: The cable's easy-strip design allows for quick and effortless stripping of the outer jacket during installation. This saves you time and labor costs during your solar project.

 

  • Solar Panel Compatibility: Designed specifically for solar applications, Solar UL Cable 12 AWG seamlessly integrates with your solar panels. It can handle the high voltage and current produced by modern panels, guaranteeing optimal system performance.

 

  • Environmentally Friendly: Solar UL Cable 12 AWG is RoHS compliant, meaning it adheres to strict regulations regarding hazardous substances in electrical equipment. This makes it a safe and eco-conscious choice for your solar power system.
