Our Solar Portfolio Highlights

Our relentless dedication to materials science means our solar products are designed to last. They are built to withstand submersion leakage tests, temperature variations, UV exposure, moisture and mechanical conditions. Our DC connectors are built for flame retardancy, are robust and resist animal intrusion. They are listed to UL, cUL and IEC standards while our AC solutions comply with the IEEE, ANSI, IEC, GB applicable standards.

Customizable Trunk Solution

A next-generation EBOS which is flexible, reliable and customizable to the needs of solar farms. 

Our Customizable Trunk Solution CTS can be implemented regardless of size, location and mounting structure and it is compatible with East-West or North-South trunk cable orientation.

Every CTS project is managed by our teams of design engineers and project management experts who provide advice at every stage of the process. From pre-installation farm design and optimization recommendations, to customized in-field training and post-operational support. 

The CTS components deliver high levels of protection and performance that meet stringent testing and certification standards.

UL9703 & IEC 62852 Certified

DC Connections

Our SOLARLOK photovoltaic connectors are designed for easy, quick and reliable DC connections. With a precision-engineered design, they help achieve the lowest contact resistance to reduce power losses.

Connection & Mounting Solutions

Our range of lugs and sleeves, dual rated or bimetallic, accommodate aluminum and copper conductors with no torque maintenance required.

Switchgear & Transformer Solutions

Our Raychem separable connectors, and our heat shrink and cold shrink terminations are easy to install, compact and adaptable to most cable types to reduce your installation time and costs.

Onshore Grid Connections

To connect your grid, choose from our complete range of industry-leading Raychem heat and cold shrink joints for 1-core to 3-core cables, and junction boxes to separately branch-off joints or cable junctions.

Grounding Solutions

Our ground rods and AMP or SIMEL connectors – exothermic welded, compression and bolted – are resistant to corrosion and help eliminate grounding failures to ensure your solar farm safety and operation.
