{"product_id":"mc-4-parallel-y-cables","title":"MC-4 Parallel Y Cables","description":"\u003cp\u003eSolar panels can be wired together in either series (+ to -) or parallel (+ to +) configurations. Wiring two panels in series effectively turns them into one larger panel, which can simplify installation but makes the array more susceptible to shading — if any part of either panel is shaded, total array output drops dramatically.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eA parallel configuration solves this problem: the output of one panel isn't affected by the output of the other, which can make your array more efficient in partial shade — common for vehicles that move around a lot.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis parallel Y-cable makes connecting two panels in parallel simple, and can improve your system's overall power output. Looking to connect three panels in parallel?
