The solar photovoltaic (PV) market has evolved over the past five years from a condition of shortage of supply, low efficiency levels, and relatively high prices to its current state of proliferation of producers, overcapacity, and a drive to differentiate similar panel products through aesthetics and "nice to have" add-on features.

Power Connectors

Power connectors transfer AC or DC through a variety of electronic devices and are used in a variety of commercial, industrial, and residential applications. Power connectors range from simple AC or DC inlets and outlets to sophisticated power entry modules

Flexible Circuits

Flexible circuits use polyimide films and other foldable substrates to meet the requirements of complex electronic manufacturing applications.

Terminal Blocks

Terminal blocks are modular, insulated blocks that secure two or more wires together. Terminal blocks consist of an insulating body and a clamping device. Their flexibility allows wiring to be centralized and makes it easier to maintain complex control circuits.

Wire to Board Connectors

Wire-to-board connectors are used to interconnect printed circuit boards (PCBs) by using connectors attached to wires.

Wire to Wire Connectors

Wire-to-wire connectors are used to connect two wire-terminated connectors.
