FAQ's

What type of cable is used for solar panels?

Cabling for solar power systems is referred to as PV wire - photovoltaic wire. This is a single conductor wire which is insulated for the protection of the wire and current. PV wire is typically made from copper or aluminium as these materials are conductive so will carry current from the solar panels to the inverter.

PV wire can further be solid or stranded - stranded wire is more flexible and can withstand vibrations which may occur within outdoor applications, however solid is more efficient when used across distances.

How can I protect my solar panel wires?

Wire management is the best way to protect solar panel wires. Solar panel wires can be protected by a cable management tray - which is an increasingly popular form of above-ground cabling which removes the need for trenching.

Cable management trays keep wires arranged in a neat form; protected against pests; ensures that there are no tight bends in the wire which may damage it; and lifts wires away from rough surfaces or elements on the ground, protecting both wire and those who may come into contact with the solar power system.
