Applications
RPVU90, RPV90 cables may be installed indoors or outdoors, in raceways and conduits, both above and below ground, and may be direct buried. RPVU90 can be used in direct burial installations. It must comply with CE Code Rules 12-012 and 4-004. They are 90ºC, 2 kV rated, and suitable for use in a photovoltaic system.
Type RPVU90 cable is for use on the DC and AC side of a photovoltaic system, suitable for installation in both wet and dry locations, and may be exposed to sunlight.
Type RPV90 cable is for use on the DC and AC side of a photovoltaic system, suitable for installation in dry locations, and may be exposed to sunlight.
RPVU90/RPV90 cables are RoHS Compliant.
