​#10 AWG Marine Grade PV Wire on a spool
​The proper wire from the solar panels to the controller and the controller to the batteries is important to minimize voltage drop and thus obtain maximum performance from your solar panel.  Our wire is made for the marine environment and will provide optimal power throughput with minimal voltage drop.  We install MC4 connectors on the wire so no special tools will be required for installation.

50 Foot Coil #10 AWG Marine Grade PV Solar Wire w/ MC4 Preinstalled

This 50 foot coil has a male MC4 connector preinstalled on one end and a female MC4 connector on the other. Cut the coil in half for two 25 foot runs from the solar array to the controller. Extra wire can be used to run from the controller to the battery bank.
