While we re not going to get too deep into the details the difference between connecting solar panels in series vs in parallel is an intermediate level solar discussion. Sold as a pair these y connectors will maintain the voltage of your panel configuration to match your battery size. These connectors are solely compatible with connectors and come with one male mmf and one female ffm connection.

With parallel solar panels the positive terminal from one panel is connected to the positive terminal of another panel and the negative terminals of the two panels are connected together. If we have two solar panels with the same voltage but different wattage there is no problem. They can be wired in parallel. Connecting your solar panel in series vs parallel affects current flow and is dictated by your installation s setup.

About half way through the lead it splits into 2. Wiring solar panels in parallel causes the amperage to increase but the voltage remains the same. Kt solar y lead connectors are available in male and female connections and are commonly used to connect other solar panels in parallel.
