Solar Wires and Connectors
Solar wires and connectors are purpose-built for rooftop and utility solar installations — UV-resistant, high-temperature-rated DC cable and MC4-type connectors that carry current from the panel array to the inverter, often exposed to direct sun for decades. Using standard PVC building wire for this run is a common and costly mistake; solar cable is cross-linked (XLPE/XLPO) to resist UV degradation and the higher operating temperatures rooftop cabling sees.
eNarayan Elex distributes Polycab solar DC cable — electron-beam cross-linked, rated for outdoor exposure and the higher current-carrying and thermal demands of solar strings — along with Elcom solar connectors and accessories for panel-to-inverter and string-to-combiner-box connections.
This range serves residential rooftop solar (2-10 kW systems), commercial rooftop and ground-mount installations, and solar EPC contractors sourcing DC cable and connectors at project scale. Correct cable sizing and connector selection directly affects system efficiency and long-term safety, since a poor connection or undersized cable is a common cause of hot-spots and fire risk in solar installations.
As an authorized Polycab and Elcom dealer, eNarayan Elex stocks solar cable in standard gauges and MC4-compatible connectors ready for Hyderabad-area EPC and residential projects. Request a solar cable and connector quote with your system size.
Frequently Asked Questions
Which solar wire and connector brands does eNarayan distribute?
eNarayan is an authorized dealer for two leading solar component brands: Polycab (Solar DC Cable) and Elcom (PV cable connectors, including MC4-type connectors), covering both the cabling and connection side of a solar installation.
Why is solar-rated DC cable different from standard power cable?
Solar DC cable such as Polycab's uses an electron-beam cross-linked compound that resists UV, ozone, temperature swings and hydrolysis, is flame retardant and low smoke, and is rated for a service life of over 25 years — built for continuous rooftop/outdoor exposure that standard cable isn't certified for.
What standards do eNarayan's solar cables and connectors meet?
Polycab Solar DC Cable is certified to IEC 60332-1-2 (fire), IEC 61034-2/EN 50268-2 (smoke), IEC 60754-2 (halogen-free) and EN 50618 (H1Z2Z2-K), while Elcom PV connectors carry IP68 ingress protection and are rated to 1500 Vdc.
Can eNarayan supply both the solar cable and the MC4 connectors together?
Yes. As a distributor for both Polycab and Elcom, eNarayan can supply matched solar DC cable and PV connectors as a single order, which simplifies compatibility and logistics for EPC contractors and installers.
How do I request a quote or catalogue for solar wires and connectors?
Product catalogues are available to download on the brand pages, and quotes can be requested via sales@enarayan.com or +91 991 234 3384.
Why can’t I use regular PVC wire for solar panel wiring instead of solar-specific cable?
Regular PVC wire isn’t rated for the UV exposure and higher operating temperatures a rooftop solar DC run sees, and degrades faster outdoors. Solar cable like Polycab’s electron-beam cross-linked range is specifically built to withstand direct sun exposure over the 20+ year life of a solar installation.
What size solar DC cable do I need for a residential rooftop system?
Sizing depends on system current and cable run length — typically 4-6 sq mm for most residential rooftop strings, but longer runs need a larger gauge to limit voltage drop. Share your system kW and approximate cable run and we’ll confirm the right size.
Does eNarayan Elex supply solar cable and MC4 connectors together for EPC contractors?
Yes — as an authorized Polycab and Elcom dealer we stock both DC cable and matching connectors, so EPC contractors can source the full DC-side BOQ from one distributor.
