Where to buy

Specifications

Type
Connector

The Solar connector pair MC4 is a Victron set of one male and one female MC4 connector. The maker's part number is SCA520300000. Because the set holds one of each gender, it gives you a single matching connection. Check that the cable cross-section suits the connector before you fit it, and count how many connections your wiring needs.

Our take

A pair of one male and one female MC4 connector gives exactly one mating connection, so count the cable ends you need to terminate and see whether one set covers them.

From our buying guide

On a boat subpart I covers, an electrical component must not ignite fuel vapor around it unless it is isolated from gasoline fuel sources. Ignition protection is the maker's statement.

Check before you buy:

  • 33 CFR 183 subpart I applies to boats that have a gasoline engine, except an outboard, so a gasoline generator counts.
  • On a boat subpart I covers, each ungrounded output conductor from a battery needs a manually reset, trip-free circuit breaker or fuse within 72 inches of the battery.
