Certificate description
The TÜV 2962 Floating Cable Certificate is a specialized certification developed by TÜV Rheinland, a leading independent testing and certification organization, for floating cables used in photovoltaic (PV) systems. This certification focuses on ensuring the performance, safety, and durability of cables specifically designed for use in floating solar power installations, where solar panels are mounted on bodies of water such as lakes, reservoirs, and oceans.
Floating solar power systems are gaining popularity as a solution to land scarcity for large-scale solar installations, particularly in regions where land is limited or expensive. However, the unique challenges of operating in aquatic environments—such as exposure to water, fluctuating temperatures, UV radiation, and constant movement—require cables that are specially designed to withstand harsh conditions. The TÜV 2962 Floating Cable Certificate ensures that the cables used in these floating PV systems meet high standards of safety, electrical performance, and durability, reducing risks associated with cable failure and enhancing the long-term performance of the system.
