This 100 m drum of 2.5 mm² single core black solar PV cable is double insulated with a low-smoke zero-halogen (LSZH) outer sheath — providing the fire safety performance required for solar installations in residential buildings, commercial properties, and enclosed installations where smoke and toxic gas emission during a cable fire must be minimised. Double insulation (XLPO primary insulation + LSZH outer sheath) provides a higher level of electrical protection and mechanical durability than single-insulated XLPO cables.
The 100 m ready-to-use drum length suits residential rooftop installations and small commercial systems, eliminating the need to cut from a large industrial reel. Rated 1500V DC; Class 5 tinned copper conductor; operating temperature ‑40°C to +90°C; compliant with EN 50618 and IEC 62930.

Specify LSZH sheathed solar cables where national building regulations, project specifications, or fire safety requirements mandate low-smoke cabling — typically in enclosed installations (underground car parks, tunnels, occupied buildings) where evacuating personnel from smoke is critical. For open-air ground-mount installations, standard XLPO is typically specified and provides equivalent UV and weather performance at lower cost.
