Description
This MC4 Y Type connector is specially designed for solar photovoltaic systems, enabling fast parallel wiring of PV modules. It simplifies installation and eliminates the need for extra combiner boxes, cutting both difficulty and system costs while improving efficiency.
With standard industrial specifications, it combines the output of multiple PV modules or strings into one circuit, keeping voltage stable while increasing current. It supports DC 1000V/1500V and works with 30A/40A current, matching most PV cables for wide use in residential, commercial and off-grid solar systems.
The MC4 Y Type uses a foolproof design to prevent wrong insertion, with clear polarity for safer connections. It features IP67 waterproof and dustproof protection, strong UV and aging resistance for long outdoor use.
Low contact resistance and high conductivity ensure stable, efficient and safe operation of your PV system.
Strong Point
- Simplifies parallel wiring without extra combiner boxes.
- Available in mainstream specifications: 1000V/1500V, 30A/40A.
- Foolproof design prevents mis-insertion, with IP67 waterproof rating.

Production Details
Usage environment:
MC4 Y Type Connector widely used in residential rooftop solar, commercial PV installations, off-grid solar stations, ground-mounted solar arrays, solar carports, and solar energy storage microgrids.
It simplifies parallel wiring of solar panels without the need for additional combiner boxes, effectively reducing installation costs and complexity.
Designed for outdoor open-air use, it withstands rain, high temperature, strong UV radiation, and extreme weather.
With its IP67 waterproof and dustproof performance, it ensures stable operation in humid, dusty, and extreme temperature environments for all solar PV systems.
Why Choose The Mc4 Y Type?
- It makes parallel wiring much simpler and eliminates the need for extra combiner boxes, greatly saving installation time and cost. With standard 1000V/1500V and 30A/40A ratings, it fits almost all solar PV systems and works stably for residential, commercial and off-grid projects.
- The foolproof design effectively prevents wrong insertion, ensuring safer and more reliable connections. IP67 waterproof and dustproof performance allows long-term outdoor use, with strong UV resistance and aging resistance. Low contact resistance improves conductivity and reduces energy loss, making your PV system more efficient and durable.
General Installation & Operation Instructions
Preparation
Disconnect all DC power. Check connectors, cables and seals for damage. Use standard PV cables (2.5–6mm²) and proper MC4 crimping tools.v
Wiring Connection
This Y-branch connector realizes parallel connection of PV modules, combining two strings into one output with voltage unchanged and current superposed. It simplifies wiring without extra combiner boxes. Confirm polarity to avoid reverse connection.
Installation & Locking
Insert male and female connectors until hearing a "click" to ensure locking. The foolproof design prevents mis-insertion. Tighten the seal nut for waterproofing.
Use & Maintenance
Do not overload or use in AC circuits. Low contact resistance ensures stable power transmission.Press the buckle to disassemble; do not pull cables. Replace worn or damaged parts promptly.
