This is the manufacturer-specified solar cable for the Victron Energy Solar Home System 200 (SHS 200). It connects the solar panel to the SHS 200 MPPT charge controller and is cut to a 5 metre length for standard SHS 200 installations.

Key features

• Compatibility, designed specifically for use with the Victron SHS 200 Solar Home System.
• Length, 5 metres, suited to typical panel-to-controller runs in SHS 200 installations.
• Genuine part, a Victron Energy accessory with the correct connector type and cable specification for the SHS 200.
• Weight, 0.47 kg, easy to handle and route during installation.

Why the correct cable matters

The SHS 200 is a self-contained solar home system with a built-in MPPT charge controller. It uses a proprietary connector arrangement, so a generic solar panel cable may not mate correctly or could introduce resistance that affects charging. This cable is the dedicated interconnect specified for the unit.

At 5 metres it gives enough reach for most wall-mounted or roof-edge panel positions relative to an interior-mounted SHS 200. It is not extendable without adding connectors, so plan the cable route before you start installing.

Applications

• Replacement cable for an existing Victron SHS 200 installation.
• Spare cable for SHS 200 systems in remote or off-grid locations.
• New SHS 200 installations needing an additional or longer cable.
• Off-grid rural electrification projects using the SHS 200 platform.

Installation notes

Use this cable only with the Victron SHS 200 Solar Home System. Check the connector fit before installation. Route the cable clear of sharp edges, heat sources and areas prone to mechanical damage. Where the SHS 200 forms part of a larger off-grid system, have a qualified electrician carry out or check the wiring.
