UL 4703 PV Wire

HORNOUR UL 4703 PV Wire is a 2000 V UL Type PV cable for interconnecting PV modules and strings in grounded and ungrounded photovoltaic systems under US NFPA 70 NEC Article 690.31. The double-insulated construction uses a fine-stranded tinned-copper conductor, electron-beam cross-linked halogen-free polyolefin core insulation and a flame-retardant, halogen-free outer sheath. The cable is weather-, abrasion- and UV-resistant for outdoor PV use. Available conductor sizes are 2.5 to 16 mm².

Will the approval documents match the exact cable you quote?

Where a certificate, test report or DoP is part of the approval package, we match it to the quoted cable construction and the applicable scope. A document for one version is not treated as approval for another simply because the model name is similar.

What CPR evidence is available for H1Z2Z2-K Eca, Dca and Cca?

Eca is supported by the applicable test report. Dca and Cca are supported by the corresponding CPR certificate and Declaration of Performance. The CPR class, construction and size being supplied must fall within the scope of the supporting documents.

Does the same H1Z2Z2-K CPR documentation cover Twin, PV Extension and rodent-resistant versions?

Not automatically. Twin constructions, connectorised extensions and modified constructions such as nylon barrier or steel-wire armour have to be checked against the scope of the applicable documents. For a PV extension lead, CPR evidence for the base cable does not by itself classify the complete connectorised assembly.
