Utilizing a special friction welding or transition plating process, this technology perfectly solves the potential difference problem when connecting copper conductors to aluminum alloy cables, eliminating the risk of electrochemical corrosion.
Boasting an extremely high protection rating, this system features a built-in high-quality sealing ring, capable of withstanding harsh outdoor environments such as rain, snow, water accumulation, and high humidity, protecting the internal components of the connector from corrosion.
The outer shell is primarily constructed from high-end PPO/PA materials, exhibiting excellent anti-aging capabilities and maintaining structural strength even under extreme temperatures.
Optimized internal structure design ensures exceptional overcurrent capacity, effectively reducing power loss and improving the overall power generation efficiency of the photovoltaic system.
Pull
Pull the cable with moderate force to ensure the cable and connector are secure.
Look
Check for exposed aluminum wire at the end of the terminal and ensure the waterproof cap is tightened properly.
Listen
When inserting the connector, confirm a crisp, locking sound from the spring.
