Everything about MC connectors is opposite, in fact many websites even list the products incorrectly. The male with the poking out plug is often referred to as the Male but it actually has the female metal contact inside and vice versa for the female.

You might also refer to them as positive or negative but that changes once you put the matching plug on the other fly lead to connect to a circuit breaker. ie. The male might be positive with the red conductor cable but you'd attached a female plug to run a lead to the circuit breaker but it would still need the red conductor cable to differentiate it.

Technical Spec

  • 2-6mm2 cable
  • Waterproof IP65 rated connections which used as a matched pair.

Crimp the tinned coated copper only

 

MC4 connectors are a licenced product of Multi Contact. Only original MC connectors can use the term MC but they are commonly copied and referred to as MC4 solar connectors. The easiest way to tell is to check for the MC logo which is embossed into the product. MC plugs are also screen printed with White ink so if they aren't clearly marked or printed they are not MC4.
