Description

LEADER PV-BN101A 1500V Solar Cable Connector

The LEADER PV-BN101A Solar Cable Connector is designed to provide safe, secure, and efficient electrical connections in photovoltaic power systems.

Manufactured from high-quality materials, the connector offers low contact resistance and excellent current-transfer capability, helping reduce power losses and maintain reliable system performance. It is suitable for connecting solar panels, extension cables, combiner boxes, solar inverters, and other photovoltaic equipment.

The connector is available in different sizes to support solar cables ranging from 2.5mm² to 10mm², making it suitable for residential, commercial, and industrial solar installations.

High-Voltage Solar Applications

The PV-BN101A connector supports photovoltaic systems operating at up to 1500V DC, making it suitable for modern high-voltage solar installations.

Electrical Performance

• Rated voltage: 1500V
• Rated current: 35A / 40A
• Contact resistance: ≤0.25mΩ
• Rated impulse voltage: 16kV
• Low-resistance electrical connection
• High current-transfer capability

The actual permitted current must be selected according to the cable size, installation conditions, system design, and applicable electrical requirements.

IP68 Waterproof Protection

The connector features an IP68 protection rating, providing strong resistance against dust and water when correctly assembled with a compatible solar cable.

This makes it suitable for outdoor photovoltaic installations exposed to rain, moisture, dust, sunlight, and changing weather conditions.

UV and Temperature Resistance

The durable connector housing is designed to withstand long-term outdoor exposure.

Environmental Performance

• Operating temperature: -40°C to +85°C
• UV-resistant construction
• Flame resistance: UL94-V0
• Suitable for demanding outdoor environments
• Pollution degree: Class II
• Protection class: Class II

Secure Locking System

The integrated locking mechanism helps prevent accidental disconnection after installation. The connector is designed to provide a firm and stable connection between compatible male and female solar cable connectors.

Correct crimping tools and assembly procedures must be used to maintain electrical performance and environmental protection.
