Locking Collar enhances solar connector reliability.

info@productnews.com (ThomasNet News) — Mon, 07 Sep 2009 08:34:20 -0500

Connector latch locking collar accessory can be applied to mated SOLARLOK solar cable connectors to prevent inadvertent or accidental unmating. Specifically, it prevents access to release mechanism of mated connectors and allows tooled extraction via screwdriver. Collar, required in any accessible photovoltaic locations in U.S. where mated cable connectors are exposed, meets recommendations of 2008 NEC section 609 as well as UL 1741 photovoltaic requirements.
