With a broad range of solar generation, transmission and distribution cables that link solar power sources to the grid and beyond, General Cable is your renewable energy cable partner. For more than three decades, General Cable has developed the most reliable and technologically advanced cable solutions through experience, innovation and an extensive R&D program, allowing us to respond to the world’s changing energy needs. We offer the power and stability of a longstanding global company with local support to service solar energy partners throughout the world.

From the Sun to the OutletFrom the back of the solar panel to the inverter where DC electricity is converted into clean AC power, from the inverter to the transformer where electricity is transferred to the substation, and from the substation to the power grid, General Cable provides a broad range of renewable energy products for the solar market. Besides developing next-generation solar products, General Cable has the offering to comprise a complete cable solution for solar power applications. From low-voltage DC and AC connections and medium-voltage distribution to high-voltage overhead and underground transmission lines, General Cable’s range of products is engineered to withstand the demands of entire solar power generation, transmission and distribution systems — from the sun to the outlet.

The SunGen® DifferenceAs a company committed to environmental stewardship and renewable energy, General Cable has specifically designed its SunGen suite of products to effectively and efficiently connect solar panels and concentrated solar power technologies while being able to withstand the harsh operating environments of solar power applications.

• Resistant to UV/sunlight, ozone and water absorption

• Stable electrical properties over a broad temperature range (-40°C to 90°C)

• Excellent flexibility and performance in low-temperature environments

• Highly resistant to deformation, even in prolonged exposure at high temperatures

• Mechanically rugged construction resists cutting, tearing and abrasions

• CSA RPV90 and RPVU90 Listed

• TÜV certified, halogen-free, fire-retardant and low-corrosive gas emission provide added degree of safety

• Single- and multi-conductor cable constructions

• 18 AWG - 1000 kcmil stranded copper and 6 AWG -1000 kcmil aluminum conductors
