UV-Resistant Wire

- Use for outdoors, buildings, solar equipment, power supply
- Flexible
- Temperature Range: -40° to 190° F
- Insulation: Cross-Linked Polyethylene (XLPE)
Also known as photovoltaic (PV) wire, this wire won’t deteriorate from UV light when used outdoors. Often used in solar panels, the cross-linked polyethylene (XPLE) insulation won’t break down from prolonged exposure to high temperatures. The insulation also resists chemicals. An RHW-2 industry designation means this wire withstands underground and wet locations.
