Solar Panel Extension Cable
Solar panel extension cable is mainly used for connecting between solar panels and between solar panels and other components (such as controllers, inverters, etc.). It consists of the cable itself and connectors.
ZMS solar panel extension cables come with solar connectors, providing a standardized way of connection without the need for soldering or crimping. It makes the installation and connection of solar panels easier. We can provide various compatible solar connectors, including compatible MC4 connectors, solar panel Y connectors, solar panel parallel connector, MC4 to Anderson connectors, etc.
ZMS solar connector cables have obtained various certifications such as TÜV, IEC, CQC, RoHS, etc., demonstrating excellent performance in extreme temperatures, UV resistance, flame retardance, and durability with repeated plugging and unplugging. We can customize solar panel extension cords according to customer requirements, including specifications such as length, material, number of cores, connectors, etc., to meet the needs of different photovoltaic applications.

FAQ
What Are the Specifications of Solar Panel Extension Cables?
The length of solar panel extension cables can be customized, with commonly used lengths ranging from 1m to 3m. Common wire gauge sizes range from 8AWG to 16AWG, with commonly used wire cross-sections of 2.5mm², 4mm², and 6mm².
In addition to various connectors, ZMS can also provide solar panel extension cables with U-shaped or O-shaped terminals.
Can You Make Solar Cable Connectors by Yourself?
The process of making solar cable connectors includes checking for damage to male and female cores and heads, and using wire strippers, crimping tools, and open-end wrenches. Even non-professionals can make these connectors by following specific steps.
Compared to making connectors yourself, directly customizing solar panel extension cables may be slightly more expensive, but it can save time and labor and make installation more convenient.
What Are the Commonly Used Solar Connectors?
The most commonly used connector type in solar photovoltaic systems is the MC4 connector. It has become one of the standards for photovoltaic connectors due to its widespread use and market recognition. MC4 connector extension cables can withstand high voltage and current and are suitable for connecting solar panels, inverters, and other system components.
ZMS’s MC4 compatible connectors are consistent with MC4 connectors in specifications, size, and tolerance and can be 100% matched.
In addition to MC4 connectors, other commonly used solar connectors include Y-type or parallel connectors. Their structure is a one-to-many connector, which can connect multiple solar panels in series to increase the voltage of the entire panel array while keeping the current constant.
ZMS’s Y-type solar connectors provide a flexible connection method that can be adjusted according to system design and installation requirements. For example, the configuration of solar panels in series and parallel can be adjusted based on seasonal changes or sunlight conditions to optimize system performance.
Project Highlight
ZMS joined forces with Green State Power (GSP), a pioneer in renewable energy infrastructure, to equip a monumental 10 MWP photovoltaic project in Kabul, Afghanistan.
ZMS comprehensively analyzed the PV project and provided it with 1X10 and 1X6 solar cables H1Z2Z2-K, 3X300 LV cables, 3X300 MV cables, as well as ACSR 185/30 overhead cables. Complementing these were vital accessories like PV connectors and meticulously curated toolboxes.
ZMS’s commitment to quality and reliability facilitated smooth installation and operational efficiency, contributing to the region’s sustainable energy infrastructure.
