EN50618 PV1-F Floating Solar Power System Cable

The EN50618 PV1-F Floating Solar Power System Cable is a high-performance solar power system cable designed

for floating solar farms, lake-based photovoltaic systems, and offshore renewable energy projects.

Built to meet EN50618 and PV1-F standards, this cable ensures long-term durability, waterproof performance,

and excellent resistance to UV radiation and extreme weather conditions.

With an AD8 waterproof rating, the cable is engineered for continuous water immersion, making it ideal for

floating PV (FPV) applications. Its tinned copper conductor, XLPE insulation, and halogen-free outer sheath

provide superior corrosion resistance, flame retardancy, and electrical efficiency.
