Solar cable red 50m 6mm² IEC62930 – SOLR650 for high-performance PV systems
Description
Product information
The Solar cable SOLR650 (50 metres, 6mm²) in red is the ideal cable by the metre for photovoltaic projects that place the highest demands on efficiency and durability. With a length of 50 metres and a reinforced cross-section of 6mm², this cable offers the perfect reserves for string cabling on rooftops or connecting distant module arrays. The red colouring is used for standard-compliant identification of the positive pole (+), which makes installation clear and minimises the risk of polarity reversal.
Certified according to the international standard IEC 62930, this cable fulfils the strictest requirements for use in modern PV systems up to 1500V DC. The generous cross-section ensures that the voltage drop is minimised and the overall yield of your system is maximised, even with the high currents of modern high-performance modules.
Highlights at a glance
- Maximum efficiency: The cross-section of 6mm² massively reduces the electrical resistance and ensures minimal voltage drop, especially over distances of 50 metres.
- Certified safety: Complies with the IEC 62930 standard (H1Z2Z2-K) for permanent use in photovoltaic direct current systems up to 1500V.
- Optimum project length: 50 metres in one piece enable uninterrupted installation without additional plug connections between the module array and inverter.
- Weather & UV resistant: The high-quality XLPO double insulation protects the cable against embrittlement caused by sun, ozone and extreme weather conditions for decades.
- Corrosion-protected conductor: Fine-stranded, tinned copper offers the best long-term conductivity and provides effective protection against oxidation, even in damp or salty environments.
- High thermal load capacity: Reliable operation in a wide temperature range from -40°C to +90°C.
Areas of application
The SOLR650 is the ideal choice for demanding installation scenarios:
- Large roof systems
- Perfect for connecting the solar modules to the inverter if it is installed in the basement or in a remote technical room.
- Powerful balcony power stations
- Ideal for systems with modern modules (500Wp+) to transport the high currents safely and without losses.
- Island & battery storage
- Ideally suited for 24V or 48V systems where low voltage drops are crucial for optimum battery charging.
Assembly & safety instructions
- Professional connection
- Only use high-quality MC4 connectors that are approved for 6mm² cross-sections. Precise crimping with a special solar crimping tool is essential.
- Mechanical fixation
- Fasten the cable at regular intervals with UV-resistant cable ties to avoid mechanical stress caused by wind or dead weight on the connections.
- Avoidance of induction loops
- Run positive (red) and negative (black) cables as parallel and close together as possible to minimise electromagnetic interference fields.

FAQs about solar cable red 50m 6mm²
Why is 6mm² for 50 metres better than 4mm²?
Due to the lower resistance. The electrical resistance adds up over a distance of 50 metres. With 6mm² you reduce the voltage drop by around a third compared to 4mm². This ensures a higher system voltage at the inverter and therefore a measurably higher yield.
Can the cable be laid freely outdoors?
Yes. The cable is specially certified for permanent outdoor installation. It is resistant to UV light, ozone and ammonia, which also qualifies it for use in agriculture.
Is the cable flame-retardant?
Yes. The XLPO insulation is flame-retardant and halogen-free. In the event of a fire, the cable produces hardly any smoke and no corrosive gases, which significantly increases safety in the building.Properties
