Electric cables - Part 5: Cables for use on AC-applications in photovoltaic and solar systems

Title (German)

Kabel und Leitungen - Teil 5: Leitungen zur Verwendung in Wechselstromanwendungen in Photovoltaik- und Solarsystemen

Procedure

Overview

This document applies to flexible cables with a rated voltage of AC U0/U 450/750 V (600/1 000 V for fixed installation with mechanical protection) for use in AC applications of photovoltaic systems. This document also applies to AC cables used in outdoor applications of concentrator solar power (CSP) systems, etcetera, with fixed installation or when limited movement is expected. This document is applicable to lines in the AC circuit of photovoltaic systems. This document does not apply to lines used in the DC circuit of photovoltaic systems. Typical examples of applications for AC power (H07Z2Z2-K) and control (H05Z2Z2-K) lines in accordance with this document include connections between inverters and the grid, use in photovoltaic tracking systems and heliostat tracking systems in CSP plants, as well as use in solar thermal systems.
