APsystems AC Bus Trunk Cable: 10AWG High-Capacity (2.4m Landscape Spacing)

The APsystems AC Bus Trunk Cable (10AWG) is the heavy-duty backbone for high-performance microinverter arrays. Featuring thicker 10-gauge copper conductors, this cable is designed to handle higher current loads with minimal voltage drop. This specific 2.4-meter (approx. 8ft) spacing is engineered for Landscape orientation, providing the extra length needed to bridge the distance between microinverters when panels are mounted on their long side.

Compatible with the APsystems DS3 and QS1A series, this cable simplifies your Balance of System (BOS) by providing pre-assembled, drop-in connections. The TC-ER rated jacket is sunlight resistant and built for extreme North American weather, while the IP67-rated junctions ensure your AC branch remains watertight for the 25-year life of your solar system.

Key Advantages of 10AWG & 2.4m Spacing:

• Higher Amperage Support: The 10AWG wire allows for a larger number of microinverters on a single branch circuit (up to 30A), reducing the number of home runs back to the main service panel.
• Perfect Landscape Fit: The 2.4m connector spacing provides the necessary slack for 60-cell and 72-cell panels mounted in landscape, preventing cable tension and ensuring a clean install.
• Reduced Voltage Drop: Thicker copper conductors ensure that the energy produced by your DS3 or QS1A units reaches the grid with maximum efficiency, especially on longer branch runs.
• Rugged Reliability: Designed to meet stringent NEC and CEC requirements, the Y3 cable is resistant to oil, water, and UV degradation.
