Questions and answers

Before you order

What size is the cable?
It is a 10.0mm² single-core PV cable.

What is it used for?
It is used for DC wiring in solar systems, including panel arrays, combiner boxes, charge controllers and inverter connections.

Why use 10mm² instead of 6mm²?
A larger conductor can carry more current and reduce voltage drop, especially on longer cable runs. The correct size still depends on the system design.

Does it come in red and black?
Yes, PV cable is typically supplied in red for positive and black for negative connections.

Is it suitable for large solar systems?
Yes. 10mm² cable is commonly chosen for higher-current or longer-distance DC connections where smaller cable would create excessive voltage drop.

Does Suntree also have other PV cable sizes?
Yes. Colcal Machinery also lists Suntree 6.0mm PV cable alongside the 10.0mm version.
