AIMS Power 10 AWG MC4 Compatible Lugged End PV Wire Runs 30 Feet From Your Solar Panels to a Lug Terminal
The AIMS Power 10 AWG MC4 Compatible Lugged End PV Wire is a 30 foot solar cable with a factory-installed MC4 compatible connector on one end and a ring lug on the other. Pick a female or male connector to match the panel lead you're plugging into. The cable is 10 AWG tinned copper PV wire rated at 600 V with a 49.6A allowable current.
It's for solar owners and installers who want the panel end to plug in and the equipment end ready to bolt down, with no crimping on either end. Use it on home, cabin, RV and off-grid systems where the array wiring lands on a terminal that takes a lug.
AIMS Power 10 AWG MC4 Compatible Lugged End PV Wire Features
Both Ends Ready to Install
The MC4 compatible connector and the lug come installed, so the cable is ready to plug in at the array and fasten at the other end. You skip stripping, crimping and the tools that go with them.
30 Feet of 10 AWG Tinned Copper
The conductor uses 75 tinned copper strands (75/0.30 TC) with a conductor resistance of 3.59 Ω/km. AIMS lists an allowable current of 49.6A and a 600 V rating.
Made for Outdoor Solar Wiring
XLPE insulation and a 6.4 mm jacket give the cable a 90 °C rating in dry or wet locations and an ambient range of -40 °C to +90 °C (-40 °F to +194 °F). It withstands short circuit temperatures up to 250 °C (482 °F). AIMS specifies UL4703 PV cable.
Real-World Applications
Panel to terminal runs. Plug the connector into a panel or array lead and fasten the lug at a terminal in your equipment area.
RV and van systems. Thirty feet covers a run from roof panels down to equipment inside the coach or van.
Cabin and off-grid builds. Bring panel output from a rack or roof to a battery and controller area with a finished end at each side.
Practical Comparison
Lugged End Versus Cut End PV Wire
Cut end wire leaves the equipment end open so you can trim it and terminate it yourself. The lugged end version arrives with the lug already installed, which saves a step when your terminal takes a lug and 30 feet suits your route.
Female Connector Versus Male Connector
Both options use the same 30 foot cable and lugged end. The only difference is the MC4 compatible connector, so choose the one that mates with your panel lead.
Buyer Guidance
Confirm the Lug Fits Your Terminal
AIMS doesn't publish the lug's stud size for these cables. If your controller, bus bar or other terminal needs a specific lug size, ask the Outbound Power team to confirm the fit before you order.
Plan the Run
Make sure 30 feet reaches along the actual route with some slack. Keep bends to at least 5 times the outer diameter, and keep your array within the cable's 600 V and 49.6A ratings.
This May Be A Good Fit If
- Your panels use MC4 compatible connectors
- Your equipment end takes a lug
- A 30 foot run reaches your equipment
- You'd rather not crimp your own ends
Common Questions
Which Connector Should I Choose?
Choose the gender opposite the panel lead you're connecting to. A female connector mates with a male lead, and a male connector mates with a female lead.
How Long Is the Cable?
Both options are 30 feet long. AIMS lists the 30 foot cable at 2 lbs.
What Are the Ratings?
The 10 AWG PV wire is rated 600 V with a 49.6A allowable current and a 90 °C dry or wet temperature rating.
What's Included
- 1 x AIMS Power 30 Foot 10 AWG PV Wire With Female MC4 Compatible Connector to Lugged End
The male option includes the same cable with a male MC4 compatible connector.
Plug In at the Panel, Fasten at the Terminal
The AIMS Power 10 AWG MC4 Compatible Lugged End PV Wire gives you 30 feet of 600 V, 49.6A PV cable with a finished end on each side. If you'd like help choosing the connector or checking the lug fit, the Outbound Power team is happy to help.
