Solar cable for your PV system.
Solar cables transmit the direct current between PV modules and inverters. Depending on the line path, loose lines or suitable prefabricated PV connection lines are required.
PV string cable and solar cable
For new systems, extensions and replacements: Ask us for PV lines with the required length and design.

Characteristics and use: PV-String cable and solar cable
Operation
These usually single-wired lines connect PV modules with each other and lead the direct current to the inverter. Weather, UV radiation and temperature must be taken into account for outdoor use.
Selection features
A common type identification is H1Z2Z2-K according to EN 50618; in addition there are lines according to IEC 62930. On older systems the name PV1-F can occur. The documented properties of the concrete direction are decisive. The label alone is not a release for any location.
Pre-assembled PV connection and extension lines
For additional line paths with suitable connection ends. Give us the desired length and the existing plug-in system.

Characteristics and use: Pre-assembled PV connection and extension lines
Operation
These are cables with connectors already installed. They are used, for example, for additional line paths between intended connection points. In addition to length and cross-section, both connectors must clearly match the existing plug-in system.
For your request
In case of a request, the desired length and photos or markings of the existing connections help. A similar housing form is not sufficient for the assignment.
PV plug and connector.
This is about connections on the DC side of your photovoltaic system: matching plugs and sockets, planned branches and suitable PV transition lines.
PV DC plugs and sockets
For new or replaceable PV connections. Photos and legible markings help us to assign the associated plug system.

Characteristics and use: PV-DC plugs and sockets
Operation
These connectors connect the DC lines of a PV system. The complete connection consists of matching connectors with housing, gasket and electrical contacts. Depending on the design, contacting and locking also differ.
System boundaries
Only the corresponding parts of the same type and manufacturer are connected together. Similar shape, suitable dimensions or the indication "compatible" are not enough. Common PV connectors according to EN 62852 have no load switching capacity.
Branch and Y connectors
For planned line branches of your plant. Let us know the plug-in system, the intended task and the required number.
Request a quote: Branch and Y connectors
Characteristics and use: Branch and Y connectors
Operation
Branch connectors bring together several intended line branches. They are used in planned parallel connections and are available as compact connectors or as assembled line branches.
System boundaries
The possible number of branches, currents and the intended plug-in system must fit the system concept. A Y connector does not replace technical string and protection planning.
PV adapter and transition lines
For expressly provided transitions between connecting points. Ask for the connection with information about both ends and length.
Request a quote: PV adapter and transition lines
Characteristics and use: PV adapter and transition lines
Operation
Such lines connect different, specifically intended connection points. Each end must belong to its respective counterpart; the electrical assignment must also be established.
Selection and request
An adapter is not a standard solution for mixing externally similar PV connectors. Therefore, both sides and their markings are important for the request.
Important terms simply explained.
DC (DC)
PV modules generate direct current. The solar cables between modules and inverters belong to the direct current wiring of your photovoltaic system.
String
A group of PV modules connected in series. A parallel connection of several branches can be distinguished from this.
Conductor cross section in mm²
The cross-sectional area of the electrical conductor. Information such as 4, 6 or 10 mm² are examples of cross-sections and no recommendation for a particular installation.
Outer cable diameter
The diameter of the entire cable with insulation and coat. It is important, for example, for the suitable sealing and clamping area of a connector.
Plug, socket and contact
The complete PV connector consists of matching counterparts. Metallic contacts, housings, seals and locking must fit the intended plug-in system.
UV-resistance and earth laying
Resistance to sunlight does not automatically mean suitability for direct earth laying. The documented operating conditions of the concrete line are decisive.
What does the selection matter?
For the selection plug-in system, cable data, location and length are important. Photos of existing connectors and legible markings help in the assignment. The electrical design and professional connection belong in the hands of an electrician.
This information will help us with your offer.
Tell us the type of cable or connector you want, the length or quantity and the existing connections. If the exact design is still open, we will clarify it together.
- New plant, extension or replacement
- Existing connections and legible markings
- Required length, number and intended route
- Photos or existing documents, if available
Photos and existing documents can be added directly to the contact form.
Frequently asked questions.
Do similar-looking PV connectors fit together?
The appearance is not enough for the assessment. The associated plug system is crucial for a secure connection. Name the existing version or add photos and documents to your request.
What helps with a request for connection lines?
Tell us which connecting points are to be connected and which length is needed approximately. Information on existing devices, lines and connectors makes it easier to coordinate.
