REDARC SOLAR CABLES AND VALUE PACK
REDARC Solar Cables are suitable for use with REDARC Solar products. REDARC Solar products include Solar
Panels, Solar Blankets, Solar Regulators and REDARC BCDC / BMS Battery chargers. The cables feature
UV stabilised PVC insulation for outdoor applications, and use genuine Anderson™to Anderson™SB™50
connectors with silver plated terminals.
The REDARC Solar Value Pack (SRPA20-VP) includes a 5m Anderson™to Anderson™cable (SRC0018), a
1.5m Anderson™to Battery Clip cable (SRC0009) and a 20A Solar Regulator (SRPA0240). All products in the
REDARC Solar Value Pack (SRPA-VP) use Anderson™SB™50 connectors with silver plated terminals.
WARNING AND SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS - THIS MANUAL CONTAINS
IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS FOR REDARC
SOLAR CABLES.
Do not operate Solar products unless you have read and
understood their associated manuals, and the system is
set up as per their instructions. REDARC recommends
that any Solar product is installed by a suitably qualified
person.
WARNING
RISK OF EXPLOSIVE GASES:
Working in the vicinity of lead-acid batteries is
dangerous. Batteries generate explosive gases during
normal operation. For this reason, it is of utmost
importance that you follow the instructions when
installing and using Solar products.
RISK OF EXPLOSIVE GASES:
Batteries should be mounted in a well ventilated area, as
far as possible from any ignition sources. NEVER smoke
or allow a spark or flame in the vicinity of a battery or
engine. This may cause the battery to explode.
RISK OF OVERCHARGING:
Check the manufacturer’s data for your battery and
ensure that the voltage of the profile you select does
not exceed the manufacturer’s recommended maximum
charging voltage. If the maximum voltage for your
battery type is too high, please select another charging
profile.
RISK OF DAMAGE AND INJURY FROM
IMPROPERLY SECURED PANELS:
Solar panels mounted to all types of vehicles, including
but not limited to, 4x4 Vehicles, RVs, Caravans, are
subject to high wind and vibration forces when driving.
Solar panels must be securely attached to the vehicle in
accordance with all local and national safety standards.
In addition, the solar mount manufacturer's instructions
must be adhered to or may be required to be exceeded
to comply with local and national standards.
CAUTION
1. Solar products should not be used by persons
(including children) with reduced physical, sensory
or mental capabilities, or lack of experience and
knowledge, unless they are supervised or have been
instructed on how to use the appliance by a person
responsible for their safety. Children should be
supervised to ensure that they do not play with the
Solar product.
2. Do NOT use Solar products to charge non–
rechargeable batteries. Doing so may result in harm to
the user and/or damage to the Solar products.
3. Do NOT exceed the current and voltage rating of the
cables and connectors. Exceeding the recommended
ratings will cause damage to the components.
4. Incorrect connections can subject the Solar products
to high voltages or currents that will cause damage.
Ensure the recommended connections and sequences
are followed.
5. Only use Solar products for charging Lead Acid,
Gel,Calcium content, AGM or Lithium Iron Phosphate
batteries using a Solar Regulator/Charger suitable for
the Battery’s chemistry and nominal voltage.
6. Solar products are not intended to supply power to a
low voltage electrical system other than to charge a
battery.
7. An unconnected Solar panel exposed to light may
generate voltages up to their rated open-circuit
voltage on their leads. Completely cover all Solar
panels with an opaque material during installation,
and when connecting or disconnecting conductors to
reduce the chance of an electrical spark.
8. Do not use mirrors or other devices to artificially
concentrate sunlight on Solar panels.
9. Solar panels used in series, parallel, or series-parallel
shall be positioned to receive identical amounts of
light to reduce risk of damage.

WARNING AND SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
10. Partially shaded or partially obscured Solar panels will have reduced output, and can damage the Solar panels.
11. Solar panels will achieve best results when proper battery maintenance is regularly performed. This includes but is
not limited to checking water and specific gravity levels of the battery.
PERSONAL SAFETY PRECAUTIONS:
12. To assist with the safe operation and use of the Solar Product:
a. Wear complete eye protection and clothing protection. Avoid touching eyes while working near a battery.
b. If battery acid contacts your skin or clothing, remove the affected clothing and wash the affected area of your
skin immediately with soap and water. If battery acid enters your eye, immediately flood the eye with running
cold water for at least 10 minutes and seek medical assistance immediately.
