Overview
Product Overview
UH-PC-MC02 is a compact cable-to-cable solar connector designed for 1000V DC photovoltaic wiring. Three conductor-specific configurations are available: 30A for 2.5 mm² PV cable, 45A for 4 mm² cable and 50A for 6 mm² cable.
Compared with the UH-PC-MC01 platform, UH-PC-MC02 uses a different, shorter connector housing while retaining field crimp termination and IP67 protection when correctly assembled and mated. Tin-plated copper contacts are supplied as standard, with silver-plated copper contacts available on request.
Features
Key Product Features
Compact Connector Housing
The UH-PC-MC02 platform uses a shorter connector housing than UH-PC-MC01, providing an alternative form factor for PV cable installations where a more compact connector body is preferred.
Three Matched Cable Configurations
Available configurations pair the connector rating with the intended PV conductor size: 30A with 2.5 mm², 45A with 4 mm², and 50A with 6 mm² cable.
Crimp Contact Termination
Crimp termination provides a mechanical and electrical connection between the PV conductor and contact when the correct terminal and crimping die are used.
IP67 Mated Protection
The connector provides IP67 environmental protection after correct assembly and complete mating of matched connector components.
Standard Tin-Plated Contacts
Tin-plated copper contacts are supplied as the standard configuration for UH-PC-MC02.
Silver-Plated Contact Option
Silver-plated copper contacts are available on request for projects requiring an alternative contact surface.

Applications
Where This Product Is Used
Commercial Buildings
Protection, switching, distribution and enclosure components for commercial and light-industrial electrical installations.
Residential Electrical
Protection, switching and backup-power components for residential distribution boards and low-voltage electrical systems.
Solar PV Systems
Protection, connectivity and distribution components for photovoltaic arrays, string circuits and related solar DC systems.
UH-PC-MC02 is designed for detachable DC connections in PV module strings, solar extension leads and field-installed photovoltaic cable runs. Its compact connector housing provides an alternative form factor for residential, commercial and utility-scale PV wiring using 2.5, 4 or 6 mm² conductors.
Installation
Installation Guidance
1. Select the correct connector configuration for the installed conductor: 2.5 mm² / 30A, 4 mm² / 45A, or 6 mm² / 50A.
2. Prepare the PV cable without damaging the conductor strands or insulation required for sealing.
3. Insert the conductor into the correct crimp contact and complete the termination using a compatible crimping die.
4. Push the terminated contact into the connector housing until the contact is fully seated and retained.
5. Assemble and tighten the cable sealing section so that the seal grips the PV cable jacket correctly.
6. Mate both connector halves completely and confirm that the locking mechanism has engaged.
7. Check polarity, cable retention and complete mating before energizing the PV circuit.

PV Connector Wrench for Solar Connector Assembly – UH-PT-WR01
UH-PT-WR01 is a manual PV connector wrench platform available in 1000V flat-head, 1500V flat-head and 1000V round-head configurations. Each variant is designed for assembly and disassembly of compatible solar connector housings and cable-gland interfaces during PV installation and maintenance.
View ProductRated current applies to the corresponding UH-PC-MC02 connector configuration and does not replace PV cable ampacity or system design calculations.
IP67 protection applies only after correct connector assembly and complete mating.
Use matched connector components from the same UH-PC-MC02 connector family. Similar geometry does not by itself confirm safe intermateability with connectors from another manufacturer.
Tin-plated copper contacts are supplied as standard. Silver-plated copper contacts are available on request.
Do not connect or disconnect photovoltaic connectors while the circuit is under electrical load.
Certification documentation depends on the selected production configuration and project requirements. Contact UHCCY for applicable documentation.
