SOLARLOK Interconnection System
SolKlip™ – Ground Clip
Tyco Electronics’ newest
innovation provides the photo-
voltaic integrator with a solu-
tion for grounding PV panels
and mounting frames. The
Tyco Electronics SolKlip brings
a new ground connection
solution to the market by the
utilizing well-known insulation
displacement termination
technology.
Existing solutions typically
require the use of ring tongue
crimp terminals which have to
be crimped first at a specific
location on the wire, a hole is
then drilled into the mounting
surface, and the product is
finally mounted on the frame
with a separate thread forming
or self-tapping screw. The
new Tyco Electronics SolKlip
provides an extremely simpli-
fied solution for terminating a
continuous-run ground wire.
All specifications subject to change. Consult Tyco Electronics for latest specifications.
Termination times are meas-
ured in seconds using the
pre-mounted Tyco Electronics
SolKlip thereby saving time
and reducing wiring costs
substantially. The four-point
wire contact inherent in the
design optimizes grounding
performance and provides
protection against contact
problems due to its low inter-
face resistance.
The Tyco Electronics SolKlip
can be used with un-insulated
copper wires from 12 AWG to
10 AWG. The retained-force
nature of the contact provides
a robust interface that mini-
mizes vibration or thermally
induced termination problems
that often occur with traditional
ground-screw connections.
Termination of the wire is safely
and easily accomplished tool-
lessly by simply inserting the
wire and closing the cover.
With a tensile strength of up
to 36 kg, the UV-resistant
enclosure provides a secure
termination even in roughest
environmental and assembly
conditions. As an added
benefit, the connection can
be opened and re-terminated
again up to five times.
Retrofitting the Tyco Electronics
SolKlip on panels or frames
can be done at any time by
simply by drilling mounting hole
in the frame and attaching
the terminal to the frame using
the integrated, self-tapping
screw. This ensures a secure
connection with the panel
and/or frame.
The patent-pending Tyco
Electronics SolKlip ground
terminal supplements the
existing Tyco Electronics
SOLARLOK product portfolio
and offers the electrician yet
another valuable component
for simple and fast wiring of a
PV-system.
