MC4 Branch Connector for Parallel Solar Panels 3-Way In 1-Way Out Multibranch

Multibranch connectors 3 into 1 MC4 Compatible. Parallel Connection

When two panels operate in parallel the positive cables are connected together and negative cables are also shorted together. Paralleling increases the current at max power point (Imp) while the voltage remains the same.

For example, the solar panels with 8Amps Imp and 18V Vmp , if two identical panels are connected together the amps will be 16Amps and the voltage will remain at 18V. 

If only two panels are required the Multibranch MC4 connector is the easiest and safest method. It is obvious that the two positive male and two negative females can not be connected together, that's why theh multibranch connectors will fulfill this connection. 

What is the package?

A pair of connectors for positive and negative group of panel wires. 

- One branch connector accepts three male MC4 on the input and one male MC4 at the output

- One branch connector accepts three female MC4 on the input and one female MC4 at the output

As a result, the number of cables is reduced from three positives to one positive and three negatives to one negative. 

• 1pcs MC4 Branch Adapters Male to three Female
• 1pcs MC4 Branch Adapters Female to three Male
