KabelDachdurchführung

KabelDachdurchführung refers to the process and components used to safely and effectively route cables through a roof. This is a critical step in installations such as solar panels, satellite dishes, antennas, or ventilation systems, where external wiring needs to enter or exit a building's interior without compromising the roof's integrity or weatherproofing.

The primary goal of a KabelDachdurchführung is to prevent water ingress, which can lead to structural damage, mold growth, and electrical hazards. Various specialized products are available to achieve this, often referred to as roof penetrations or cable glands for roofs. These typically involve a base unit that conforms to the roof's material, such as tiles or metal sheeting, and a sealed conduit or flashing that encases the cable.

Materials commonly used include durable plastics, rubber, and metal, designed to withstand UV radiation, extreme temperatures, and moisture. The installation process requires careful attention to detail to ensure a watertight seal. This often involves sealing compounds or adhesives, and proper fastening techniques to secure the unit to the roof structure. For different roofing types, specific solutions exist, like cone-shaped penetrations for tiled roofs or specialized flashing for metal roofs. A properly executed KabelDachdurchführung is essential for the longevity and safety of any installation that requires routing cables through the roof.
