Overview

The ABB TC403 Cable Edge Solar Clip (SKU: TC403) is a W-style cable management solution designed for solar PV installations requiring parallel cable routing along panel frames. Constructed from durable black acetal copolymer, this clip delivers reliable outdoor performance across an extreme operating temperature range of -65°C to 90°C (-85°F to 194°F). It accommodates up to eight #10 AWG solar PV control cables with a maximum bundle diameter of 7.87mm (0.31 inches), making it ideal for managing multiple control and communication cables in parallel configurations. Engineered for solar applications, the TC403 features a secure W-style design that prevents cable movement and maintains organization during high-wind conditions or thermal cycling. The acetal copolymer material provides excellent UV resistance and long-term durability in harsh environmental conditions, including coastal and industrial settings. Unlike standard cable ties or metal clips, this solution offers a non-conductive, corrosion-resistant alternative that meets the demands of modern solar installations. Key applications include residential and commercial solar arrays, utility-scale projects, and off-grid systems where cable management parallel to the panel frame is required. The clip's design ensures compatibility with standard solar panel frame thicknesses while providing a clean, professional installation. With a push-barb mounting method (compatible with common solar frame profiles), installation requires no tools and can be completed in minutes, reducing labor costs and improving installation efficiency. The TC403 is part of ABB's Installation Products portfolio, a trusted brand in electrical infrastructure solutions.
