Phoenix Contact PV-ED6/Y-120(1+/2-) Distribuidor en Y Fotovoltaico, Polaridad Positiva, 6 mm², Cable 120 mm, 1500 V DC, 40 A

On large-scale solar farms, technicians often need to parallel PV strings directly at the array or inside combiner boxes. The Phoenix Contact PV-ED6/Y-120(1+/2-) Y-distributor splits one input into two outputs, enabling efficient string paralleling while maintaining high current capacity. Its compact 120 mm cable length fits easily into tight junction boxes, simplifying wiring and reducing potential failure points.
