PV Wire 600v and 2KV
Uni Cable's PV Wire is a single conductor cross-linked polyethylene (XLP/XLPE) Type Photovoltaic (PV) wire that can operate up to 600 V, 1000 V (1kV) or 2000 V (2kV) depending on Type, and up to 90°C in wet and dry locations. Photovoltaic Wire is used for interconnection wiring of grounded and ungrounded photovoltaic power systems at various voltage levels. Our PV Wire is oil, gasoline and sunlight resistant. This versatile single-conductor cable is designed to meet the varying needs of the Solar Industry. Applications include connection to module junction boxes; required cable routing in balance of system (BOS) integration.Electrical Characteristics
