The PV1-F halogen-free solar cable is a single-core DC photovoltaic wire built to EN 50618, designed specifically for rooftop PV arrays and building-integrated photovoltaic systems where fire safety compliance is not optional. Unlike standard PVC-jacketed solar cables, the PV1-F uses electron-beam cross-linked LS0H insulation and sheath — a material choice that directly addresses what happens when a cable is exposed to fire in an occupied structure.
This halogen-free, halogen-free solar cable emits no hydrogen chloride gas and minimal smoke under combustion, complying with IEC 60754-1/2 and IEC 61034-2. Rated at 1500V DC with a tinned copper Class 5 conductor, it handles the full voltage range of modern string inverter and microinverter architectures. Installers working in European residential markets — Germany, Netherlands, Belgium, France — frequently specify this cable to meet updated national building codes that mandate low-smoke, zero-halogen wiring in occupied buildings.
The PV1-F EN 50618 DC photovoltaic wire is tested through the full standard: Annex E UV aging at 720 hours xenon-arc, IEC 60332-1-2 flame propagation, cold bend at -40°C, and long-term thermal endurance per the standard's 25-year design criteria. These are not partial certifications — every test item in the standard is verified for each production batch.
| Sector | Application | Why PV1-F Fits |
|---|---|---|
| Residential PV | Rooftop solar on single-family and multi-unit dwellings | Meets national building codes requiring halogen-free fixed wiring in occupied structures. Zero toxic smoke in a fire scenario protects escape routes and reduces liability. |
| BIPV | Building-integrated PV facades, atriums, skylights, curtain walls | Cable runs inside the building envelope. Enclosed-space fire risk demands LSZH materials — LS0H meets this without the brittleness issues of older LSZH compounds. |
| Commercial Solar | Warehouse, factory, and office rooftop arrays | Large-scale rooftop installations with long cable runs. UV-stable LS0H jacket holds up under years of direct sun and thermal cycling on metal roofs. |
| Enclosed PV | Carports, parking canopies, underground garage solar | Limited ventilation amplifies smoke risk. IEC 61034-2 compliant smoke density means visibility is maintained during a fire event. |
European residential installations typically route DC cable through attic spaces or service risers. In Germany, DIN VDE 0100-712 now references EN 50618 for PV system wiring with additional emphasis on fire performance. PV1-F meets these requirements. The tinned copper conductor resists the humid attic environment better than bare copper, and the LS0H jacket does not degrade from contact with standard roofing materials and insulation.
Building-integrated photovoltaics place the DC cable inside the building's thermal envelope. A short circuit or arc fault in this environment involves the cable directly in any fire propagation. Architects and fire engineers now routinely specify halogen-free cable for BIPV in project documentation. PV1-F is pre-qualified for these specs — the IEC 60754 and IEC 61034 test reports are available with each shipment for submittal to building control authorities.

Tested to IEC 60754-1/2 with no detectable halogen acid gas. IEC 61034-2 smoke density ≥60% light transmittance. These numbers are on the batch test report — not estimated from material datasheets.
EN 50618 Annex E requires 720 hours of xenon-arc aging with no cracking. Our LS0H compound passes this at full rated temperature. Suitable for direct outdoor exposure over the full 25-year design window.
IEC 60332-1-2 single-cable flame propagation test passed. The cable self-extinguishes when the flame source is removed, limiting fire spread along cable runs in tray installations.
Tinned copper stranding to IEC 60228 Class 5. Tight bend capability reduces installation time in confined rooftop spaces. The tin coating prevents corrosion at MC4 connector crimp points in humid environments.
| Standard | Scope |
|---|---|
| EN 50618 | Electric cables for photovoltaic systems — full standard compliance |
| IEC 60754-1/2 | Test on gases evolved during combustion of electric cables — halogen acid gas content |
| IEC 61034-2 | Measurement of smoke density of cables burning under defined conditions |
| IEC 60332-1-2 | Tests on electric cables under fire conditions — flame propagation |
| CE / RoHS | European conformity and hazardous substance restriction |
Documentation: Batch-level test reports covering conductor resistance, spark test, halogen content, and smoke density are shipped with every order. Third-party inspection by SGS, Bureau Veritas, or customer-nominated agency is available on request.
The PV1-F designation specifically indicates halogen-free construction per EN 50618. Standard PV cable may use PVC-based jackets that release hydrogen chloride gas under fire. PV1-F uses LS0H (cross-linked polyolefin) for both insulation and sheath — zero halogen content, verified by IEC 60754-1/2 testing.
Yes — rooftop PV is the primary application. The LS0H jacket is UV-resistant (EN 50618 Annex E, 720h xenon-arc) and the halogen-free construction meets European building code requirements for wiring in occupied structures. The Class 5 flexible conductor makes routing through conduits and under panels straightforward.
Standard stock covers 4 mm² and 6 mm². On request we supply from 1.5 mm² up to 35 mm². For projects requiring larger cross-sections, contact us with your specifications — we can produce to order with typical lead time of 15-20 days.
EN 50618 specifies a 25-year design life based on accelerated thermal aging and UV exposure testing. The LS0H insulation's electron-beam cross-linked structure maintains dielectric integrity and mechanical flexibility throughout this period when installed within rated temperature limits.
Cable sizing depends on string current, cable run length, and acceptable voltage drop (typically ≤1% for DC-side wiring). For a typical residential installation with 10-12A string current and runs under 30m, 4 mm² is standard. Longer runs or higher currents may require 6 mm². We can provide voltage drop calculations for your specific layout.
