Selected User Reviews For Renogy 10Ft 10AWG Solar Adaptor Wire Extension Cables with Female and Male Connector, 1 Pair, Black
I bought these to connect to a Suaoki 100W flexible panel and they worked perfectly. The wire appears to be a little thicker than 12 gauge, but not quite as thick as 10 gauge. The thickness of the average is. 950" with a tensile strength of approximately 11AWG. The wire appears to be from a Chinese manufacturer, so it's most likely a miscalculation in how they converted their size to American standards. Another possibility is that the increase in size was caused by the tinned end of the wire, which I eventually replaced with a 10 gauge (45 Amp) Anderson Power Pole connector. There was no play when it crimped on. Some strands of copper did not fit into the 30 amp connectors for 12 and 14 gauge wire because they were too small. br>Because I only needed this one pair of connectors, buying them rather than making my own cable assembly made more sense. br>Some reviews claim that the polarity markings on theirs are incorrect, but I don't see any on mine, so I used a silver Sharpie to make my own polarity markings on the connectors to match the markings on the panel.
These are ideal for connecting a solar panel to a charge controller. However, if they were different colors, that would be ideal. Remember that these are 10AWG wires, which will not fit into a smaller charge controller, so he'll have to cut the cable down, shrink it, and lose some wiring and conductivity to get this gauge wire to fit the smaller 20 amp controllers.
I glued them to the back of my panel. Then I added some two-terminal quick disconnects to the ends of the bare wire, and the other quick disconnect was attached to my charge controller. This eliminates the inconvenient task of screwing the wire in. Throughout the project, make sure to use 10 gauge wire. If you're only using one 12v battery, however, you might be able to get away with 12 or 14 gauge.
These cable tails were connected to the solar generator's terminals. They make connecting and disconnecting the longer panel cables a breeze. The solar generator (100 amp hour battery solar controller inverter multimeter) is housed in a heavy-duty rolling tool case. When you get home, the battery is recharged by four 100-watt hard solar panels. When camping, the battery is charged by three 120 watt flexible panels.
I'm not a big fan of pre-cut wire. I usually construct my own instead of buying ready-made items. This wire is of excellent quality, and the connectors are of the highest standard. notch. I bought it to add my own extensions, and I can confidently say that the wire they provide is of exceptional quality. It is extremely versatile, weather-resistant, and UV-resistant, as well as being of excellent quality. This is the product to use if you want to avoid soldering, heat shrinking, and bending exterior quality wire. Even with the exorbitant price-per-unit, I'll buy this the next time I do it. foot vs. a do-it-yourself solution Working with it is a pleasure.
They're of good quality and clearly marked, but they're not compatible with my Renogy Solar Power Panel. Because the male is marked as positive, and the male on the cables I received is also positive, I needed a positive female connector rather than the male I received. Of course, I simply reversed them at the controller, ignoring the red positive marking, but this was not a well-thought-out plan.
I needed to connect my solar panels to the charge controller, and rather than wire them directly into it where I wouldn't be able to disconnect if something went wrong, I bought these to allow the stripped in to be inserted into the controller and the quick mc4 connectors to protrude through the wall of my camper van for quick and easy disassembly since my panels are not mounted on the roof but rather portable. They worked great, but 9in is a little short, despite the fact that I managed to make them work.
I bought the 10 AWG cables with the expectation that they would fit in 12-gauge connectors. Crimp terminals with a wire gauge of 10 AWG. br> The cross sectional area of a 10 AWG wire is usually 5 or possibly 5. 25 millimeters squared This wire is a little longer. The dimensions are 6 mm squared, as stated on the packaging. Normally, I wouldn't mind getting a more durable product, but they won't fit into my Ancor 12-foot container. Crimp terminals with a wire gauge of 10 AWG. The wire as well as the insulation were both too large. br>I was able to work around it, but it was inconvenient. Apart from that, it appears to be an excellent product. br>br>ps: After doing some more research, I discovered that it is 6mm in the technical data. However, I would have expected it to fit in 10 AWG Ancor terminals.
