As countries around the world increasingly shift towards green sources of energy, many photovoltaic (PV) plants are ramping up electrical production in tandem.
"Asia Pacific offers the biggest potential in the PV market, with 55% market share in installed capacity."
Yet, for PV systems to cope sustainably with higher outputs, durable and high-quality cables that ably support high voltage transmission are needed. As they stay in operation for decades, it is also critical that cabling parts are able to withstand increasingly extreme weather conditions and climate change.
DECISIVE FACTORS TO CONSIDER IN PV INSTALLATIONS
Consider these when picking out the components of a photovoltaic system:
ADHERENCE TO INDUSTRY STANDARDS & BEST PRACTICES
Do the components follow relevant industry code of practices and standards? e.g. Fire safety, EN/IEC/ TÜV tests
LOCATION OF PV SYSTEM
Are the solar panels located on land or on water?
ROBUSTNESS OF COMPONENTS IN USE
Are the cable connections long-lasting and secure, with low-contact resistance to avoid defects and losses?
REGULAR MAINTENANCE
& INSPECTION
How often are maintenance and inspection of installed PV systems carried out?
AVOIDANCE OF SAFETY HAZARDS
Are the solar cabling components certified safe and reliable for use to minimise the risk of fires and electrical short circuits?
Complete Solution for your PV System with
Robust Solar Cable Technology
Given the prolonged exposure to wind and weather conditions on top of wear and tear, long-term durability should be your guide when choosing components, as well as the ease of installation for optimum efficiency. Avoid costly re-installation and removal should just one of the cables fail!
Designed for maximum durability, extreme flexibility and robust resistance to extreme heat, wind, frost conditions and rodent attacks, LAPP’s world-leading range of solar cables is suitable for long-term outdoor use. Solar technology advances and selection of special sheathing materials mean that LAPP solar cables are not only flame-retardant and halogen-free, but also resistant to ozone and UV light - saving you labour time and costs and reducing the risk of poor product quality.
