Common Questions
What is this cable primarily used for?
This 5m extension cable is primarily designed to extend the reach of your 80W-150W 12V Photonic Universe folding solar charging kit, allowing you to place your solar panels further from your battery or charge controller for optimal sun exposure.
What type of connectors does it use?
The cable is fitted with 50A battery plugs on both ends, which are compatible with widely used 50A Anderson-style connectors.
Can I use this cable with other 12V devices?
Yes, it can be used for various low-current 12V applications, such as powering small appliances in caravans, motorhomes, or boats, provided the total continuous current draw is less than 12A.
Why is the 4.0mm² wire gauge important?
The substantial 4.0mm² cross-section ensures efficient current flow and minimises voltage drop and power loss over the 5-metre length, which is crucial for optimal charging and performance, especially in 12V systems.
Installation Notes
- Ensure all connections are clean and secure before use.
- Always connect positive to positive and negative to negative.
- Avoid sharp bends or kinks in the cable to prevent damage to the conductors.
- Route cables safely to prevent tripping hazards or abrasion against sharp edges.
- Verify the cable length is sufficient for your intended setup to avoid strain on connections.
Before You Buy
- Confirm your existing solar kit or application uses 50A Anderson-style compatible connectors.
- Check the power requirements of your devices; this cable is rated for less than 12A continuous current.
- Ensure the 5-metre length meets your specific installation and placement needs.
- Consult your solar kit's manual for specific cable recommendations and compatibility.
- For optimal performance, ensure the cable is not exposed to extreme temperatures or physical stress.
Please verify all specifications and compatibility requirements before purchase. Product specifications are subject to change by the manufacturer.
