Southwire has launched its latest
photovoltaic cable, designed to provide
enhanced jacket protection on above-
ground solar installations.
Southwire’s super sunlight resistant (SSR) PV
cable will withstand the solar rays that age
jackets on exposed solar cables.
“As a leading manufacturer in the solar PV
market, we are excited to introduce a new
super sunlight resistant family of products,”
said Doug Ramsey, Southwire’s senior vice
president of industrial sales. “Customers
have asked for PV products that maintain
their color under the harsh sunlight and UV
environment, and our SSR cable answers
this request.”
Understanding the challenges faced with
harsh solar conditions, the company’s
engineers developed a solution to prolong
and maximize sunlight resistance.
The SSR product has undergone extensive
laboratory testing to demonstrate its color
retention, as well as tensile and elongation
attributes.
