Frequently Asked Questions
What is the KBE 16.0 DB+ EN50618 solar cable?
It is a flexible photovoltaic DC cable with a 16.0 mm² copper cross-section in red wire color, manufactured according to EN 50618 and designed for system voltages up to 1800 V DC. It is supplied as a 400-meter reel.
What is a 16 mm² DC solar cable used for?
The large cross-section of 16.0 mm² is suitable for long DC cable runs and high string currents where low cable resistance (1.24 mΩ/m) and minimal transmission losses are required - typical for ground-mounted and large-scale systems.
Is the cable suitable for direct burial?
Yes. The DB+ version is suitable for direct burial and thus for underground routing between the module field, generator junction box, and inverter.
Why is the wire red?
The red marking serves for clear pole differentiation in DC wiring. Red is usually used for the positive pole, while a black version is used for the negative pole.
Who is KBE?
KBE is a European manufacturer of cables and wires with an extensive range of photovoltaic solar cables according to EN 50618.
