This pair from Victron Energy allows installers to terminate, extend or repair PV cable runs without compromising the integrity of the DC circuit. The locking mechanism on MC4 connectors prevents accidental disconnection once mated, which is important in live DC systems where unintended disconnection can cause arcing.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThese connectors are suitable for use when extending panel leads, building custom cable assemblies, or replacing damaged connectors on an existing array. They require a compatible MC4 crimping tool for correct assembly. Proper crimping is essential: a poorly crimped MC4 connector is a common cause of resistance heating and long-term failure in PV systems.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3 style=\"color: #f87c24;\"\u003eSpecifications\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eSKU: SCA520300000\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eGTIN: 8719076025221\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eConnector type: MC4 (1x Male, 1x Female)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eWeight: 0.019 kg (per pair)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch3 style=\"color: #f87c24;\"\u003eApplications\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eTerminating solar PV cable on residential rooftop installations.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eExtending or joining panel string cables on ground-mounted arrays.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eBuilding custom-length DC cable assemblies for off-grid and hybrid systems.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eReplacing damaged or corroded MC4 connectors on existing PV installations.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eUse with Victron MPPT charge controllers and other PV system components requiring MC4 input connections.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch3 style=\"color: #f87c24;\"\u003eWhat Is Included\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e1x MC4 male connector\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e1x MC4 female connector\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch3 style=\"color: #f87c24;\"\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMC4 connectors must be assembled using a proper MC4 crimping tool. Do not use generic crimping tools, as incorrect crimp dimensions will result in a poor connection. Solar PV wiring in grid-connected systems in the UK must comply with BS 7671 and relevant G98 or G99 requirements. Installation of PV systems should be carried out by a qualified electrician or MCS-accredited installer. Never disconnect MC4 connectors under load: always isolate the circuit before working on DC connections.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Victron Energy","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":59855266414926,"sku":"SCA520300000","price":6.11,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0796\/3698\/8238\/files\/VoltaconSolar_-_SCA520300000_-_Solar_connector_pair_MC4_1x_Male-1x_Female.webp?v=1781091938","url":"https:\/\/voltaconsolar.com\/products\/victron-mc4-solar-connector-pair-male-female","provider":"VoltaconSolar","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
