A solar cable is the interconnection cable used in photovoltaic power generation. Solar cables interconnect solar panels and other electrical components of a photovoltaic system. Solar cables are designed to be UV resistant and weather resistant. They can be used within a large temperature range.

DC cables are lifelines of the Solar Power Plant and interconnect modules to combiner boxes to inverters. These cables constitute only around 1-2% of total solar project cost but have a significant role and impact on the power output with poor design and/ or cable selection leading to material safety and performance issues.

DC cables are certainly different than the AC cables in construction and perform power evacuation with certain differences in their operation. Though significantly cheaper, Normal AC cables must not be used for DC PV power evacuation. Copper is the ideal material for string DC cables due to the metal’s high flexibility, superior current carrying capacity and better thermal performance. The DC cables should be made of flexible copper conductors. DC power does not demonstrate the skin effect like AC power and therefore any small change in the copper per unit length of the conductor leads to significant impact on the power evacuation capability of the cable.
