Fothermo parallel connector - 4 modules

The parallel connectors are compatible with solar connectors and are used to connect 4 photovoltaic modules in parallel. In addition to the 4-way connector, the set also includes 2x 2m extension cables to connect the most distant photovoltaic module as well.

Important article features

• Branching sockets for parallel connection of several solar modules
• Suitable for cables with a cross section of 4mm²-6mm²
• Compatible with solar connectors
• Easy-Click-System
• Protection class IP67 when plugged in

What does parallel connection mean?
In parallel connection, the positive and negative wires are bundled at one output. This connection increases the current and the voltage remains the same.
Practical example: You want to connect 3 pieces of 100W (Imp=5,56A Vmp=17,8V) solar modules to a charge controller with 20A and a max. input voltage of 30V/DC. In order not to exceed the allowed input voltage, you have to wire the modules in parallel. So plus to plus and minus to minus.
If you now measure the string, you should be able to measure the following values under ideal lighting conditions: Imp=16.68A and Vmp=17.8V.
