Application FAQs

Q1: Why is the size and cost of the connector often overlooked?
A1: Due to its small size and relatively low cost, combined with the fact that many companies produce connectors, it’s easy for individuals to underestimate the importance of the connector. However, this oversight can lead to frequent failures in power stations.

Q2: How does contact resistance impact the efficiency of a power station?
A2: The contact resistance of a connector directly affects the power generation efficiency. If the contact resistance is too high, it can lead to inefficiencies and even safety hazards like overheating, which can cause fires. It’s crucial to ensure “low contact resistance” for photovoltaic connectors.

Q3: What are the common issues related to crimping?
A3: Crimping problems often arise from the use of unprofessional or inferior tools. Issues can include bending the copper wire at the joint, not crimping some copper wires, or mistakenly pressing onto the cable insulation layer. Poor crimping can jeopardize the safety of the power plant.

Q4: Why is it essential to use professional crimping tools?
A4: Using professional crimping tools ensures that the connectors are securely and correctly attached. Inferior or general-purpose tools can lead to poor crimping, which can result in reduced efficiency and potential safety hazards in the power station.

Q5: How can rushing the installation process impact the performance of the power station?
A5: Rushing the installation can lead to overlooked or improperly executed steps, especially in connector installation. This can bury potential hazards that may affect the subsequent operation of the power station, leading to inefficiencies or even failures.

Remember, while the connector might seem like a minor component, its proper installation and function are crucial for the overall efficiency and safety of the power station.
