PV Power Cable ShiverPeaks BS02-450216 1 m PV4 Anderson connector

PV power cable ShiverPeaks BS02-450216 is a 1 m photovoltaic DC cable with an Anderson PV4 style connector intended for direct power connections in solar system installations. The cable provides a short, robust link between solar modules, charge controllers, inverters or battery systems that use an Anderson PV4 interface. Constructed for outdoor PV use, it aims to deliver reliable low-voltage DC power transfer in compact setups where a pre-terminated connector simplifies installation and maintenance.

Advantages

The cable combines a fixed-length conductor and an Anderson PV4 style connector to reduce field assembly and ensure consistent mating with compatible PV equipment. Its one-meter length minimizes voltage drop for short runs and reduces excess cable management. The pre-terminated connector offers secure polarity protection and a solid mechanical joint that resists vibration and frequent connect/disconnect cycles. The design supports straightforward integration into systems that require a dedicated DC power interface.

Suitable for

• Connecting solar panels to small inverters or charge controllers with Anderson PV4 input
• Linking battery systems and DC distribution boards in off-grid setups
• Short interconnections within mobile or portable PV installations (caravans, boats, field kits)
• Service and testing tasks where a standardized PV4 connector speeds equipment swapping

Key specifications

• Cable length: 1 metre
• Connector type: Anderson PV4 style DC connector (pre-terminated)
• Intended use: Photovoltaic DC power transfer and equipment linking
• Polarity: keyed connector design to ensure correct polarity when mating
• Construction: flexible conductor and molded connector housing for mechanical stability
• Environmental suitability: designed for outdoor PV system use (short runs)

How to use

Inspect the cable and Anderson PV4 connector for damage before installation. Connect the Anderson PV4 style connector to the matching PV4 inlet on your module, inverter, charge controller or battery interface, ensuring the connector is fully seated and locked to maintain correct polarity and a secure contact. Route the 1 m cable to avoid sharp bends, chafing or exposure to excessive heat; use cable clamps or tie wraps where appropriate to secure the run. When disconnecting, depress the connector release and pull straight to avoid stressing the cable termination.

Usage recommendations

Use this short PV cable for nearby equipment connections to minimize voltage drop and cable clutter. Confirm compatibility of mating Anderson PV4 interfaces and observe all PV system safety practices, including isolating circuits before connecting or disconnecting under load and following local electrical codes.
