UL4703 PV1-F Solar Cable
ZD Cable offers high-performance UL4703 Certified PV Wire (Type PV1-F), designed specifically for demanding photovoltaic (PV) solar applications in the United States market.
- Certification: Strictly complies with UL4703 standards for Photovoltaic Wire, ensuring safety, reliability, and acceptance in North American solar installations.
- Voltage Ratings: Available in 600V and 1000V/2000V options to meet diverse system voltage requirements. (Note: The 1000V rating is typically for grounded DC circuits, and 2000V for ungrounded DC circuits per NEC).
- Robust Construction:
- Conductor: High-purity stranded copper conductor, typically tinned for enhanced corrosion resistance.
- Insulation & Jacket: Premium Cross-Linked Polyethylene (XLPE) for both insulation and the outer jacket. XLPE provides superior resistance to sunlight (UV), extreme temperatures (-40°C to +90°C), ozone, abrasion, chemicals, and moisture – essential for long-term outdoor exposure.
- Key Properties:
- Weather & UV Resistant: Excellent protection against harsh outdoor environments.
- Flame Retardant: Meets stringent UL flame tests.
- Low Smoke & Halogen Free (LSHF/LSZH): Safer for personnel and property in case of fire (RoHS Compliant).
- Flexibility: Facilitates easy handling and installation within conduit, trays, or exposed on structures.
- Long Service Life: XLPE materials ensure long-term reliability and minimal degradation in solar fields.
- Compliance: Meets RoHS and relevant industry standards (besides UL4703).
