Review on ๐Ÿ”Œ Sun YOBA 20 Pairs Black Waterproof Solar Panel Cable Connectors with Male/Female Safety Seal Ring by Chris Crisler

Revainrating 4 out of 5

CHECK BEFORE INSTALLATION

I may have ordered 60 pieces? I forgot. About 5 of them arrived broken. There was no metal in the connectors. So after you've crimped and inserted everything, if it doesn't click and lock into place, you know the connector is missing. Other than that I think they work well. My setup consists of 30 panels with 250 watts. I have 10 rows with 3 fields each. Give voc about 114v. Under load it should be 90.9V, with a current of 100A the voltage drops to 69-70V. I have runs about 80 to 90 feet of 10 ga wire at the most remote locations. 18 panels tilted for winter. 12 panels inclined for summer. The maximum I've seen, which doesn't look very good, is 5750 watts around solar noon. My 30 panels should deliver a maximum of 7500 watts. So I don't think it's bad at all. I don't see excessive heat in the connectors, so I don't think I'm overloading them at the 25 amps they're rated for.

Pros
  • โ˜€ Specially developed: This plug/socket is designed for the connection of photovoltaic solar systems with high mechanical requirements and excellent aging and UV resistance, making it durable.
Cons
  • Only available in black
