Solar DC Cable Specifications

The document describes three types of solar DC cables: 1) TUV approved PV cable with tin coated copper conductor, halogen free XLPO insulation and sheath. 2) DC solar cable with HR 105°C rated PVC insulation and sheath, available in natural or black color. 3) DC solar cable with XLPE insulation and HR 105°C rated PVC sheath, available in colors and as required. It also defines cross-linked polyolefin (XLPO) insulation, lists voltage drop and resistance as selection parameters for solar DC cables, and provides points about module to inverter cable class and calculating voltage drop and power loss percentages.

What is Cross-linked Polyolefin / XLPO?


Cross-linked Polyolefin, also referred to as XLPO, is a form of insulation that is
created through both heat and high pressure.  The most important attribute of
XLPO is that it is halogen free. The importance of a halogen free cable is one that
it will not emit toxic gases when exposed to fire.  Therefore, a common use for
XLPO wire and cable is in the transit industry.

Selection Parameter of Solar DC Cable:


 Type of insulation of cable
 Voltage drop of cable
 Resistance of Cable

Points to be remember:
 Module to AJB/INV cable should be Class-5
Cable conductor max 90degree but for maximum 120 degree for 20000 hrs.

Class of conductor refers to the flexibility required for an application. Class 2 is used in


cases where the installation is fixed and they are stranded conductors. Class 5 refers to
a flexible conductor. The core of class 5 conductor has a number of thin wires than class
2 to make it more flexible

V(drop)%=(2*Impp*R*L*100)/ Voltage

Impp
R=Resistance of cable (Ohm/Meter)
L=Length of cable (Meter)
Voltage=Vmpp*no of series module

P(loss)%=[(Impp²*R*L)*100]/TOTAL POWER
