Multi-pin connector

Anderson’s Solar SPEC Pak is the first multi-pin connector to meet the PV industry requirements specified in UL 6703A, passing the same harsh environmental tests used to qualify solar panels. It has power-handling capabilities up to 1000 volts, and features a locking latch compliant with NEC 2008 section 690.33(C). The IP68 environmentally sealed shell has a flammability rating of V-0 per UL 94 and a weatherability rating of F1 per UL 746C, with a temperature range from -40° C to 105° C (-40° F to 221° F). The core technology within the SPEC Pak shell will hold up to four Powerpole power contacts, 16 signal contacts, or a combination of both. Individually, power contacts are rated to 40 amps, handling wire sizes from 20 to 10 AWG (0.50 mm² to 4 mm²). Ground contacts are First Mate/Last Break per NEC 2008. Solar SPEC Pak is highly configurable, providing many design options for each unique requirement.
