Enphase Q-Cable Landscape Main 3-Phase Cable with Integrated Connector for IQ7/IQ8 Micro-inverters
The Enphase Q-Cable landscape main 3-phase cable is the ideal choice for installations using IQ7/IQ8 Micro-inverters from Enphase. Designed specifically for landscape installations of 60-cell solar panels, this cable provides a reliable, lightweight solution for fast and efficient installation.
Key features of the Enphase Q-Cable
- Double Insulation and Lightweight: The Enphase Q-Cable features double insulation, providing extra safety and reliability. The cable is also 50% lighter than previous generations, significantly simplifying the installation process.
- Integrated Connections: With 2 metres between connections, this cable is perfectly suited to landscape set-ups. This makes the Q-Cable an efficient choice for connecting solar panels with 60 cells.
- Quick and Easy Installation: Thanks to the new cable numbering and plug-and-play connections, installation is faster and easier, saving time and costs.
- Flexible and Durable Connectivity: This cable can be connected directly to the roof without complicated wiring. The self-made male and female connectors enable fast and secure connections on site. The cable is designed to withstand extreme weather conditions, with a temperature limit of 90°C, UV resistance and an IP67 rating.
Installation tips for the Enphase Q-Cable
- Choose the right number of connectors: The cable comes with your chosen number of connectors, with ps connector located 2 metres away from the next. The ends of the cable are open and must be terminated to ensure a safe, watertight installation. Use a splice box, a connector with a waterproof cap, or a sealing cap for this purpose.
- Pro tip: Mount a Q-Cable connector male 3-phase at the end of the cable and connect it to the last micro-inverter of the branch. This saves you an extra Q-Cable, which reduces both time and costs.
- Cable attachment: Use Q-CLIP-100 cable clips to attach the cable directly to the system’s mounting rail. This ensures a neat finish and prevents loose cables.
