Keep in mind that Wagos, Polaris lugs, Multi-tap Burndy lugs are rated for
600V. I can see this being a possible use for MC4 connectors in a higher
voltage splice scenario, because of their 1000V/1500V ratings.

For this to happen, XW should be logging warnings or faults. Have you
checked? This problem is probably related to the master / slave config. If
this is XW+, there was firmware for that back in the day for fault 55 an

Chris's reminder is a good one—the 600V rating of most insulated
"multi-tap" connectors pretty much limits their use to residential systems.
I would also keep in mind that those connectors generally have a torque
spec. I've definitely seen examples of meltdowns caused by poor
terminations - either
I think the biggest issue with poor connections on the Polaris type
blocks is not stripping enough insulation off the wire. They need much
more stripped off than other types of connectors. With too much
insulation remaining, the screw tightens on the insulation, and the
electrical connection i
I also have not been able to confirm that the Wagos are listed for use with DC.
We have been using them on AC circuits for almost a year now. Also not listed
for moist or wet environments…

Great discussion, all. Thank you.
For 1000V (where we also tend to favor MC-style connectors), we are
connecting PVWire to 1000V-rated XHHW-2 (which is not PVC), and always
inside a 3R box.

Wrenches,
I am normally a lurker on the List, but I would like to add a fact
observation and a personal preference to the topics raised by this
discussion.
First, THWN does have PVC as its primary insulation, but it is sheathed
in Nylon which is a polyamide plastic. Therefore the compatibili
