Male MC4 Evo2 LR5 Solar Connector — 1500V DC / 30A PV Interconnect (IP67, UL94-V0, 6/8 AWG Rated)
The Conversions Tech Male MC4 Evo2 LR5 Connector is engineered for high-voltage photovoltaic (PV) string wiring where 6/8 AWG conductor capacity, low-loss electrical performance, and outdoor durability are essential. Designed for modern PV architectures up to 1500V DC, it provides secure, repeatable terminations for residential, commercial, and utility-scale solar installations.
Product Description
The Male MC4 Evo2 LR5 is a rugged, installer-ready connector optimized for PV systems that demand higher conductor capacity and long-term electrical stability. By supporting 6/8 AWG photovoltaic cable, this connector helps reduce voltage drop on higher-current string runs, improves system efficiency, and supports cleaner balance-of-system (BOS) layouts.
The electrical interface uses tin-plated copper contacts with a precision termination path to maintain ≤ 0.5 mΩ contact resistance, helping limit I²R losses and connector heat rise. When properly installed and mated, the sealed housing achieves IP67 ingress protection, supporting outdoor operation in rain, dust, and high-humidity environments. The housing is constructed from PPO + PA engineering polymers with a UL94-V0 flame rating and is designed for stable operation from −40°C to +90°C.
Specifications
Key Features
Installation Overview
- Cable prep: Strip PV conductor to the specified length with a clean, nick-free cut.
- Terminal insertion: Fully seat the conductor into the crimp terminal.
- Crimping: Use a professional MC4 crimp tool with the correct die for 6 AWG or 8 AWG.
- Assembly: Insert the crimped terminal into the male connector housing until the lock engages.
- Inspection: Verify retention and seal alignment.
- Coupling: Mate with the MC4 female counterpart until fully engaged/locked.
Applications
- PV string wiring and field-installed solar arrays
- Higher-current PV runs using 6/8 AWG conductors
- Rooftop, canopy, ground-mount, and utility-scale systems
- Combiner box and inverter transition wiring
