An advanced, high-voltage single-conductor solution engineered for the critical interconnection wiring of both grounded and ungrounded solar power systems. Built to withstand high-capacity energy generation, this 4/0 AWG aluminum PV wire provides a lighter, exceptionally cost-effective alternative to copper for commercial utility arrays, field distribution blocks, and renewable energy grids.
Outdoor solar setups require components that stand up to the elements. This 4/0 AWG solar pv cable delivers dependable service by surrounding a high-grade, 18-strand compact AA-8000 aluminum core with a rugged, UL-listed Sunlight Resistant (SUN RES) cross-linked polyethylene (XLPE) insulating barrier. The thick insulation shield is specifically designed to brave severe outdoor exposure, resisting intense solar UV rays, seasonal frost, shifting soil conditions, and common field chemicals without snapping or wearing down.
High-Capacity 2000V Threshold: Engineered safely for systems running up to 2000 Volts to easily accommodate modern, high-output commercial solar configurations.
Code-Approved Tray Placement: Meets all requirements under NEC Article 690.31 (C) (2) for open, unprotected routing inside exterior cable trays.
Direct Burial & Sunlight Resistant Armor: Formulated with a waterproof, UV-blocking XLPE jacket that is certified for both direct underground burial trenches and long-term, exposed outdoor placement.
Extreme Weather Performance: Engineered to stay structurally stable and completely flexible in temperatures from $-40^{\circ}\text{C}$ up to $+90^{\circ}\text{C}$.

Photovoltaic (PV) wire is built with a noticeably thicker outer jacket to survive the punishing physical conditions of outdoor solar fields. This particular cable handles up to 2000 Volts (2KV), which is necessary for modern commercial solar setups that link panels together in high-voltage series strings. Standard commercial wire lacks the proper insulation thickness to handle these high voltages, constant UV degradation, or underground burial environments.
According to standard National Electrical Code tables, a 4/0 compact-stranded aluminum conductor is safely rated to carry up to 205 Amps under a continuous operational heat threshold of 90°C in wet or dry conditions.
Yes, our aluminum PV (Photovoltaic) wire is fully rated for direct burial.
UL 4703 is the definitive industry standard governing Photovoltaic (PV) Wire. It covers three distinct voltage classes — 600V, 1000V, and 2000V—making it compatible with everything from residential rooftop systems to massive utility-scale arrays. Unlike standard building wire, cables certified under UL 4703 feature advanced cross-linked polyethylene (XLPE) insulation specifically engineered to endure extreme outdoor weathering. This standard mandates strict testing for superior UV resistance (Sun-Res), optional direct burial routing, moisture defenses, and a wide thermal range (typically-40°C to 90°C wet/dry).
Yes, Wire America fulfills and ships our full line of Copper and Aluminum Solar PV Wire directly from our national distribution hubs located across the US and can ship straight to your jobsite. We prioritize shipping pv cables from the warehouse nearest to your job site to keep transit times minimal. Orders typically arrive within 2-4 business days. Expedited shipping options are available at checkout for time-sensitive contractor deadlines.
