Product Overview

The Amphenol Industrial Solar Technologies (AIST) H4 PV Panel Connector is designed for efficient, reliable, and cost-effective power transfer in solar electric systems. Suitable for panel manufacturers, installers, and OEMs, this connector is compatible with both thin-film and crystalline silicon technologies, and is ideal for applications involving solar inverters and combiner boxes. It features a dual UL and TV rating, meets NEC 2008/2011 requirements without additional locking components, and offers a secure snap-lock mating system with a simple unlocking tool. The connector is built for long-term UV and ozone resistance, providing low contact resistance for minimal power loss and is available in complete cable assemblies.
