Solar cable is a composite of several insulated wires enveloped by an outer jacket. Professionals use them to interconnect solar panels and other components of a photovoltaic system. And handle high UV radiation, high temperatures, and are weather resistant. Usually, they are installed outside or within the solar panels. The cable varies in diameter depending on the number of conductors it contains. Classification of Solar cables is based on the number of wires and their gauge. In general, there are three types of cables used in a PV system:
DC solar cables, solar DC main cables, and solar AC connection cables. Stranded solar wire is more flexible and has the ability to sustain frequent movement. The recommendation is to use standard wire if you install your solar system in a location with high winds or subjected to another environmental hazard.
