Gripple, a manufacturer of BOS products for the solar industry, has unveiled its latest innovation in above-ground cable management at RE+ 2025.

Gripple’s newest cable-management system leverages a robust twin catenary structure that forms a rigid, fence-like support to minimise swaying and sagging for better ground clearance and cable security in harsh weather conditions.

The hangar components are engineered from UV-stabilised, glass-filled nylon 66 to deliver high strength, heat and corrosion resistance and electrical insulating properties for a service life of over 30 years. The best-in-class load rating allows for much wider spans between hangers, cutting down material costs and labour requirements.

The hangers can be installed onto the catenary in five seconds using the snap fix mechanism. Time-trials show that up to 100ft of 750kcmil cable can be installed per minute, making it up to 50% faster than other catenary systems. The system accommodates up to 24 runs of 1,000kcmil cable, handling high-capacity requirements while avoiding potential derating through proper cable separation.
