16mm Cable for Grounding Photovoltaic Installation The PV panel frames and metal support structure must be grounded without exception.
The standard allows grounding with a cable of at least 10mm² cross-section. The insulation of regular (non-solar) cables is not resistant to UV radiation, which, after three years of exposure, gradually reduces its performance. Therefore, when purchasing a grounding cable for a photovoltaic installation, it's essential to consider its thickness and construction.
