Cable ducts for solar parks

Safety and efficiency for cabling

Cable ducts for solar parks are essential components of modern solar installations. They protect the cabling from external influences and ensure safe and efficient power transmission over long distances. Thanks to their robust design and high capacity, these large-volume metal ducts are indispensable for reliable energy transmission in solar parks.

Functions of cable ducts for solar parks?

Cable ducts in solar parks have several crucial functions that contribute to the efficiency and safety of the system.

    1. Protection: Shielding of cables against mechanical stress, moisture and UV radiation.
    2. Routing: Orderly and safe laying of cables over long distances.
    3. Ease of maintenance: Easier inspections and repairs thanks to clear cable routing.

Materials for cable ducts

The choice of materials for cable trunking is crucial to ensure durability and safety. Commonly used materials are

  • Steel: Robust and durable option that can withstand mechanical stress and environmental influences.
  • Aluminum: Lightweight and corrosion-resistant, ideal for large-scale installations.
  • Stainless steel: Highly corrosion-resistant, particularly suitable for humid or salty environments.
  • Composite materials: Combination of metal and plastic for an optimum balance of weight and protection .

Design features of modern cable trunking

Cable ducts for solar parks are designed to meet the specific requirements of large solar installations:

  1. Large-volume design: Provides sufficient space for laying many cable harnesses in parallel.
  2. Ventilation: Special openings prevent the cables from overheating.
  3. Modularity: Flexible designs allow easy customization, expansion and assembly.
  4. Corrosion protection: Coatings protect the ducts from the effects of weather and chemical stresses .

Application areas of cable ducts for solar parks:

Cable ducts are used in various areas of solar parks:

  • Ground-mounted systems: Protection of cabling that connects large areas.
  • Roof installations: Orderly and safe cable routing for solar installations on buildings.
  • Hybrid projects: Combination of solar and wind power plants in which cable ducts bundle energy from both sources.
  • Solar parks near the coast: Corrosion-resistant cable ducts for environments with high salt exposure.
