SOLARLOK Plug Connector
Attention: This connector is to be used only to interconnect firmly fixed cables.
Do not disconnect under load.
Current path should only be disconnected using approved disconnect devices.
Cable assemblies shall be labeled with Part No. 1394470-1.
Mounting and installation must be done by qualified and trained staff considering
all applying safety regulations. Tyco Electronics disclaims any warranty as a result of
non-compliance to these notes.
Any kind of pollution (dust, oil, humidity, etc.) during the assembly process or to the unmated connector
can degrade contact and connector performance. This applies in particular to the seals and the crimping
of the contacts.
A clean assembly environment is therefore essential.
SOLARLOK connectors use different crimp contacts for various wire gauges.
Possible wire gauges are 2.5 mm
AWG 14, AWG 12 and AWG 10.
The tools to be used are selected based upon the wire gauge.
For the application specification, please refer to specification # 114-74013.
Use only appropriate wire gauges.
Besides the standard seal/pinch ring combination further five different seals are available.

The grommet has to be matched with the outer diameter of the solar cable (see customer drawing,
Part No. 1394461 and Part No. 1394462) and the pinch ring (Part No. 1418677-2) must be applied.
All dimensions are in millimeters unless otherwise specified. All specifications subject to change.
Consult Tyco Electronics for latest specifications.
To protect against shock, ensure that conductors and their associated connectors
are separated from opposite polarity components.
