1 AWG 19/.0664 Strands PV Wire Photovoltaic Cable Single Core 2000V

Applications:

Photovoltaic wire is a brand of medium voltage photovoltaic cables primarily used for solar power applications. The electric cable is suitable for direct burial, where it is used as an interconnection wire for both grounded and ungrounded PV systems. The electrical wire is used to connect photovoltaic cells to combiner boxes, combiner boxes to inverters, and inverters to the transformers. The electrical wire is rated 2000v. It can be used as RHH/RHW-2 and RWU90 at this particular voltage. At 600v, the cable can be utilized for USE-2 applications.

 Photovoltaic wire is suitable for solar power generation, transmission and distribution in domestic, commercial, and industrial utilities. The cable has a temp rating of 90 C in both wet and dry places. The lowest possible temperature is -40 C. It has a possibility to resist deformation at extreme temperatures. The durability one of the highest among the photovoltaic wires.
