A pre-terminated 1 metre solar cable from Victron Energy with MC4-compatible connectors, male at one end and female at the other. It's built for short interconnections between panels, combiners or junction points in a photovoltaic system, and works straight out of the box with no field crimping needed.

Key features

• Conductor size, 4mm² cross-section, standard for residential and light commercial PV string wiring.
• Connectors, PV-ST01 type, MC4-compatible, male fitted at one end and female at the other.
• Length, 1 metre, fixed, for short panel-to-panel or panel-to-combiner links.
• Weight, 0.115 kg, easy to route in tight spaces.
• Ready to use, factory-terminated connectors, no crimping required on site.

Applications

Use it for short panel-to-panel connections within an array, linking panels to string combiners or junction boxes, or bridging small gaps during system assembly or modification. It also works as a replacement or extension section where a 1 metre length of MC4-terminated cable is needed. Suited to residential and light commercial rooftop PV installations.

Installation notes

Solar PV wiring should be carried out by a qualified electrician or MCS-accredited installer to BS 7671 and applicable local regulations. MC4 connectors must only be mated or de-mated with the correct tools; never disconnect live MC4 connectors by hand. Check the cable rating against the maximum short-circuit current of the PV string before fitting. Grid-connected systems may require G98 or G99 notification depending on system size.
