The Rich Solar RS-G02 Cable Entry Plate Brings Solar Wiring Through Your Roof With Pre-Wired Leads and IP68 Cable Glands
The Rich Solar RS-G02 Cable Entry Plate is a low-profile roof entry for solar wiring. It comes pre-assembled with red and black UL 1015 10 AWG tin-plated copper wires and solar connectors, and the wires pass through PG9 cable glands rated IP68.
Rich Solar designed it for RVs, boats, cabins and off-grid solar systems. The flame-retardant polypropylene housing measures 7.2 x 3.8 x 2.0 inches, weighs 0.34 lb and operates from -40°F to 185°F.
Rich Solar RS-G02 Cable Entry Plate Features
Pre-Wired for Faster Installation
The 10 AWG wires and solar connectors arrive assembled, so you connect your panel leads at the plate instead of building the entry yourself. The wiring is rated for 30A continuous, 42A maximum and 600V.
IP68 PG9 Cable Glands
The PG9 glands are made of PA6, rated IP68 for water and dust, carry a UL94 V-2 flame rating and are CE certified.
Heat- and Flame-Resistant Materials
The housing is flame-retardant polypropylene. The wire insulation is VW-1 flame-rated PVC, rated from 5°F to 221°F (-15°C to 105°C), and the solar connectors are PC with TÜV certification.
Real-World Applications
RV and camper roofs. Route panel wiring into the coach through one sealed, low-profile entry point.
Boats and cabins. Bring solar wiring indoors on an off-grid system through one sealed entry.
Practical Comparison
Pre-Wired Entry Plate Versus an Empty Cable Entry Housing
An empty entry housing leaves you to feed and seal your own cables through its glands. The RS-G02 arrives with its 10 AWG wires and solar connectors already run through IP68 glands, so most of the assembly is done before it goes on the roof.
Buyer Guidance
Mounting and Ratings
Seal and secure the plate with adhesive or sealant and screws. Mounting hardware isn't included, so choose screws and sealant suited to your roof. Keep your array's current within the wiring's 30A continuous rating and its voltage under 600V.
This May Be A Good Fit If
- You're mounting solar on an RV, boat or cabin roof
- Your array runs 30A or less continuous
- You want pre-wired 10 AWG leads with solar connectors
- You prefer IP68-rated cable glands at the entry
