Solar Cable
KEI has been at the forefront of India’s wire and cable industry for the last forty years.Solar photovoltaics is now,after hydro and wind power, the third most important renewable energy source in items of globally installed capacity. This results in the great demand for ‘SOLAR CABLE’. Solar cable is the interconnection cable used in photovoltaic power generation. A solar cable interconnects solar panels and other electrical components in the photovoltaic system. Matching step with the environment friendly shift the Solar Cable has been made which performs highest standards of application in its diverse usage.
