DESCRIPTIONNexans ENERGEX® PV solar cables offer exceptional performance, easy installationand long-term reliability for DC connections. They link photovoltaic panels on rooftopsor solar farms, and also connect them to the array box (if one exists), and to theinverter which transforms DC solar energy into usable AC electricity. These cableshave a wet and dry temperature rating of 90°C, are UV resistant, flame-retardant, andare certified as UL type PV.


Commercial Building Wire & CableAluminum 2 kV



STANDARDS


Part Number: Solar Cable


Application

Nexans ENERGEX® PV/RHH/RHW-2/USE-2 cables may be installed indoors oroutdoors, in raceways and conduits, or directly buried. They are 90ºC, 2 kV per NECArticles 310 and 338, and suitable for use in a photovoltaic system per NEC Article690.

Type PV cables are for use on the DC side of a photovoltaic system, suitable forinstallation in both wet and dry locations, and may be exposed to sunlight.

Type USE-2 cables are suitable as service entrance cables, which can be installeddirectly buried in accordance with the NEC.

When used as type RHH cables are suitable for installation in dry locations.

Type RHW-2 and USE-2 cables are suitable for installation in both wet and drylocations.

Nexans PV/RHH/RHW-2/USE-2 cables are LEAD FREE.

Construction

Conductor: Compact stranded AA-8000 series aluminum conductor material (ACM)per ASTM B801 Class B or ASTM B836 (Single Input Wire).

Insulation: Heat, sunlight, moisture and abrasion resistant cross-linked polyethylene(XLPE) insulation in black or colors per UL 854 and UL 44
