Advantages Of Using PVC Tubes As Solar Conduits

Solar conduit can be defines as plastic pipes to hold wires of solar electric system. These pipes or tubes are used mainly to provide safety from water or other fluids running into the pipes. Other advantages of using PVC pipes as solar conduits are:

Voltage resistance: PVC’s resistance to breakdown under high electric voltage and its ability to bend without cracking makes it most preferred conduit material.
Strong and light weight: Resistance to abrasion and light weight with a good mechanical strength gives it a technical advantage for use in wiring and cable.
Fire resistant: It is difficult to ignite a rigid PVC conduit and also stops burning if source is removed.
Durable: These conduits are resistant to all weathers, chemical rotting, corrosion, shock and abrasion, making it last for a long duration.
Cost-effective: They are cost-effective due to its durability compared to traditional options.
Environmentally sound: They are found to be more favorable to environment than other material being used for conduits
Good insulator: Since this material does not conduct electricity is best material for conduits.

In addition to these qualities PVC conduits are easy to install and almost need no maintenance with other technical advantages. These reasons make it preferred over other options.
