How To Choose Between Tin Plated And Bare Copper Braided Wire Flexible Connectors?

Copper will oxidize in the air, producing copper rust and affecting its conductivity. In order to avoid copper oxidation, tin plating can be applied to the surface of copper conductive tapes. In fact, gold or silver plating can also be used to improve conductivity, but the cost is higher. Therefore, many customers choose tin plating to save costs.

The usage environment of photovoltaic inverters is generally harsh, often installed in deserts, barren mountains, water surfaces, roofs, and other environments. This requires that the resistivity of photovoltaic cables must be good, not easy to oxidize, and can be used for a long time. Therefore, choosing tin plated copper braided tape as the conductor is the most suitable for this usage environment and the most stable electrical performance.
