Why Do Energy Storage Connectors Need To Have Uv Resistance?

For energy storage devices installed outdoors, energy storage connector is often exposed to sunlight. Ultraviolet (UV) radiation from sunlight causes physical changes in materials, especially plastic casings, such as aging, fading, and embrittlement, threatening the structural integrity of the components.

The casing material of battery storage connector must be designed to respond to ultraviolet radiation. Engineering plastics and reinforced thermosetting materials can reduce performance degradation under prolonged light exposure, thereby extending the service life of storage connector. For photovoltaic energy storage and other open-air operating environments, these materials exhibit higher UV resistance, helping to maintain mechanical properties and electrical insulation characteristics.
