I'm trying to find solar connectors that pass thru the walls of a box - like these in the photo. I can't come up with the right name to find them to buy them.
What do you call them?
Thanks,
Now if I could just find those in stock, in the USA. Seems odd that even searching for Power Entry Connectors MC4 doesn't come up with much of anything. I'd already tried bulkhead etc...
Oh super bizarre, Amazon has a 5 pack for $111.
Nothing at Digikey or Amphenol, there must be another name.
I considered taking normal MC4 connectors, drilling a hole in a junction box, and putting them on. That may be my quick disconnect for my Portable solar panels I will be setting up with the RV.
I like those Power Entry connectors better, because they appear to protrude into the J-Box less. With the 6" X 6" J box, a 1/4" or a 1/2" means you can fit more into it.
Another idea I had was to run 2' to 5' of cable out of the J-Box and put the MC4 connectors there. With what I want, that would probably work out best.

The nut for the cable gland doesn't have a gasket around the threads. Their application was bottom of a 3R enclosure, so not a problem. If you need it to be water tight, add an O-ring.
