PV-ULTRA

PV Ultra is a multicore DC solution that previously was solved by a multicore armoured cable. These multicore armoured cables are no longer recommended for use on the DC side of the installation. PV Ultra can now serve as a direct replacement allowing for a compliant multicore solution. The double insulated conductors are particularly suitable for use at the direct current (d.c.) side of the photovoltaic system, with a nominal d.c. voltage of 1.5kV between conductor and between conductor and earth. Due to the double insulation these cables are suitable to be used with Class II equipment (meeting the requirement of BS7671 Clause 712.412.101 which states that the electrical equipment up to the DC connection of the PV inverter shall be Class II or equivalent insulation) The double insulated conductors are enclosed in a CarbonTek® bedding, to give even more electrical protection against the steel wire armour (where applicable), with a final outer sheathing of SolarTek® PVC being applied to all variants of the cable (steel wire armoured or not)
