Solar connectors are used to connect solar panels to other panels, batteries and junction boxes. The most common type of solar connector is the MC4 connector, a standardised single pole connector that has built in strain relief and interlocks.
Solar Connectors (Photovoltaic Connectors)are available at Mouser Electronics from industry leading manufacturers. Mouser is an authorized distributor for many photovoltaic & solar connector manufacturers including Amphenol, Heyco, Molex, TE Connectivity & more.

To connect solar panels in series you just plug the positive connector of a PV module into the negative connector of the next module. At the end of the string, you plug the negative connector of the first module with the positive connector of the last one to the inverter.
Solar panels come with wires connected on one end to the junction box while on the other to a solar panel connector. The solar panel connector is used to interconnect solar panels in PV installations. Their main task is ensuring power continuity and electricity flow throughout the whole solar array.

Solar panels do not always come with the solar connector attached. Attaching a solar panel connector to a PV wire is a two-step process: (1) crimping and (2) tightening the connector, to do this you require a wire stripper, crimping tool, and a solar panel connector assembly tool.
