Common Questions What is a 3-to-1 MC4 cable assembly used for? It allows you to connect three solar panels in parallel to a single input, typically to increase the total current output of your solar array while maintaining the system voltage. Are these connectors compatible with all solar panels? They are compatible with Photonic Universe solar panels and most other solar panels that use standard MC4 connectors. They are not compatible with other connector types such as MC3. How do I ensure a secure connection? Always ensure the male and female connectors are fully seated and clicked into place. Verify correct polarity before making final connections to your inverter or charge controller to prevent damage. Can these be used outdoors? Yes, these MC4 cable assemblies are designed to be fully waterproof and durable, making them suitable for continuous outdoor use in various weather conditions. Installation Notes Ensure correct polarity when connecting solar panels to avoid system damage. Always disconnect power from the solar array before making or breaking any connections. Verify all connections are fully seated and secure to prevent loose contacts and potential arcing. For complex solar installations, it is recommended to consult a qualified electrician or solar professional. Before You Buy Confirm that your existing solar panels utilise standard MC4 connectors for compatibility. Verify that the 6mm² cable cross-section meets the requirements of your solar system design. Ensure the 3-to-1 parallel configuration aligns with your specific solar array wiring needs. Consider the total current output of your parallel panels to ensure compatibility with your inverter or charge controller. Always verify product specifications and compatibility with your existing solar equipment before purchase. Consult installation guides or a professional for system design and setup.
