Why choose PV cable connectors?

High-quality PV connectors are extremely easy to handle, quick to install, and minimise the risk of plant downtimes many times over – thereby saving money in the long term.

Solutions include Weidmuller's conventional WM4 C crimp connector to the innovative PV-Stick with SNAP-IN technology.

When choosing solar connectors, you need to make sure that the connector is compatible with the solar system to help link with an inverter, PV cell/module, controller, and other essential components.

The WM4 C is suitable for automated assembly and manual installation in the field. The twist protection of the housing connector is designed to prevent the plug from twisting during the installation process, allowing for rapid crimp connections. 

The PV stick is (by far) the fastest, easiest, and safest solution for wiring up Photovoltaic plants. Boasting an ergonomic design, the easy grip makes installation simple even under challenging conditions. 

Weidmuller connectors are TÜV-certified. TÜV is short for Technischer Überwachungsverein, which translates to Technical Inspection Association from German. These independent companies test, inspect, and certify technologies, products, and systems to reduce potential hazards and eliminate damages.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is a photovoltaic connector?

Photovoltaic connectors (PV connectors) are used in the automation, aerospace, and renewable energy sectors as an essential component to wiring up photovoltaic plants.

They provide a high-voltage, high-current, and low-resistance connection in a housing that’s capable of withstanding harsh conditions.

The Northern Connectors team has vast experience when it comes to PV cable connectors – so, if you have any questions at all, please don’t hesitate to get in touch.

Are Weidmüller PV connectors any good?

As a proud distributor of PV connectors from Weidmüller, you could say we’re biased, but we believe these are among some of the best quality products on the market.

All Weidmüller PV connectors are manufactured to the highest standard and ensure a reliable and long-lasting connection of photovoltaic systems.

Not only are they renowned for being extremely easy to handle and quick to install, but they’re also an excellent choice for minimising the risk of downtime which, in turn, saves money. 

Plus, like all the products we stock on our website, photovoltaic connectors from Weidmüller are priced competitively – meaning you needn’t break the bank to sort your PV set-up!

How do you know when a PV connection is successful?

Achieving a PV connection is easy with the Weidmüller PV-Stick, featuring tried and tested SNAP IN technology.

With no crimping tool or extra effort needed, you simply insert the stripped conductor into the part until you hear a “click” sound. This sound indicates that the parts have made contact safely and successfully.

Finally, all that’s left to do is tighten it up, turning the screw cover cap a few times to ensure a secure connection – ultimately increasing work efficiency and minimising the risk of errors.

It really doesn’t get any easier than that – but if you have any questions about PV connections, feel free to call us on 01744 815 001.
