9.1 Connectors
WARNING!
Incompatible or unsuitable connectors can
overheat. Fire hazard!
• Only use connectors that are the same type and
from the same manufacturer.
• Avoid using different types of connectors or ones
from different manufacturers, even :
- if connecting is possible
- if the connectors have the same basic
designation (e.g. "MC4") or
- if they are designated as "compatible".

9.1.1 Module connectors
The various module types can be fitted with the following
connectors:
• Original Multicontact
• PV-JM601 (with locking)
You can find the specific connectors in the module data
sheet.
9.1.2 Connector peculiarities
NOTE
• Original Multicontact® MC4 connectors
• Only plug original Multicontact
connectors into original Multicontact
connectors.

Laying the string cables
You can remove the connector on a module and replace
it with another connector, which is released by aleo (see

The original Multicontact® MC4 connectors are referred to as "MC4" in the data sheet.

NOTE
• Bend the cables from the connector at least 4 cm
after they exit from the connector.

NOTE
• Avoid any tensile and pressure loads on the
junction box when mounting.
• When mounting, avoid heavy tensile loads on any
connectors already plugged in.
NOTE
• Bend the cables from the connector at least 4 cm
after they exit from the connector.
• Bend the cables from the junction box as well, at
least 4 cm after they exit from the connector.
• This keeps the cables waterproof at the cable
outlet.
Observe the guidelines on laying the respective cables.
Lay all cables ensuring that:
•
You adhere to the minimum bend radius (e.g.
5-fold cable diameter3).
•
You avoid laying near sharp corners and edges or
protect the cables accordingly.
• cables must not lay between module backside and
mounting system parts.
•
You protect them from direct sunlight and
precipitation.
• You secure the cables with UV resistant cable clips
or other suitable cable fasteners which protect the
cable insulation.
• Cables from module strings are laid as near to
each other as possible to minimise the effects of
being struck by lightning.
9.2.1 Weather protection
NOTE
•
Lay the cables so that they exit the junction box
from below. This prevents water, which runs along
the cable, from collecting at the point where the
cables exit the junction box.
• For modules mounted horizontally, lay the cables
in a U-form away from the junction box.
• Modules mounted vertically do not usually need
any additional adjustments.

Lay cables carefully to protect against damage from:

Some countries specify a larger bend radius, e.g. 8-fold wire diameter in the USA (NEC
• Direct environmental factors, such as precipitation

For attaching the cable clip, use a suitable tool which can fully tighten at a defined
low force. Avoid cable clips and tools which constrict or damage the cable insulation

which slip down behind the modules, and
• Chaffing on the insulation due to the cable moving
(e.g. from wind or ice).
