MC4 Power Cabels For RV Kits

The MC4 power cable is usually the final connection

between the solar array and the solar controller. If it has

not already been done, cut the MC power cable into two

pieces so that there is a positive conductor cable and

negative conductor cable.

1. Cover the solar module(s) with an opaque material.

Attach the appropriate MC4 power cable conductor to the

positive and negative connectors of the MC4 junction box.

If you have more than one module, refer to the specific

diagram for wiring a parallel MC4 connection.

2. Run the positive and negative MC4 cable conductors

from the solar array to the solar controller. Attach a positive

polarity label to the end of the positive conductor. If the

positive conductor needs to be shortened and the polarity

label is removed, remember to re-label it as both positive

and negative conductors look exactly the same. Leave a

few feet of cable at the solar controller in case of future

adjustment.

Note: solar module junction box and MC4 cables many not

be exactly as shown.
