Solar Cable - USE-2 Solar Wire

Solar Cables are manufactured with USE-2 wire which is a black flame retardant cross linked polyethelene (XLPE) marterial. It comes in stranded tinned copper strands with a temperature rating of 90° celcius. USE-2 wire has very good heat, moisture and crush protection due to the tough outer jacket. Solar cables have a direct burial rating which means they can be used directly in the earth without disruption to its life expectancy.
