2 Product Overview
The PV1-F 4mm² solar cable is a TUV certified photovoltaic cable meeting EN 50618:2014 and IEC 62930, purpose-built for DC power transmission in residential and commercial solar PV installations. It delivers reliable performance across rooftop, ground-mounted, and BIPV applications.
The cable features a high-purity tinned copper conductor with Class 5 flexible stranding (56 strands × 0.30mm per IEC 60228), providing excellent flexibility for routing in cable trays, conduits, and tight spaces around module frames. The tinned coating ensures superior corrosion resistance and stable conductivity over decades of outdoor service, with a maximum DC resistance of just 5.09 Ω/km.
The double-layer XLPO (cross-linked polyolefin) insulation and jacket system is produced via electron-beam cross-linking, delivering outstanding thermal stability from -40°C to +120°C conductor temperature, UV resistance, ozone resistance, and mechanical durability. The LSZH jacket limits toxic emissions in fire conditions, meeting stringent safety requirements for residential and commercial installations.
Manufactured to rigorous quality standards under the management of SORIVO, each production batch undergoes 6.5 kV AC dielectric testing and 10 kV AC spark testing to ensure consistent quality. The cable is engineered for 25+ years of service life in grid-connected solar systems, commercial rooftops, and off-grid PV applications.
