If your RV does not have a refrigerator vent or you need another entry option for your solar cables, the Go Power cable entry plate is a perfect solution. The plate makes it easier to connect your cables with pre-installed MC4 connectors and lets you choose a convenient entry point on your RV. Additionally, the covered housing helps protect your wiring while preventing leaks by covering and sealing the install area.
Plate Features
The MC4 connectors provide a quick way to attach the solar cables on the outside of your rig to your internal wiring. Inside the plate, the jam-nut is thread-locked to resist vibrations and protect the connections during travel. Additionally, the plate has channels on its underside that guide adhesive sealant during the mounting process to ensure a proper waterproof seal.
How It Installs
This cable entry plate comes pre-wired with 10" of MC4 cables for your internal RV connections. Typically, these will connect to your solar controller. Use 10 AWG to 6 AWG wire for additional internal wiring. The ideal location of the plate, as well as your solar panels and solar controller, is near the battery compartment. The total cable length should not exceed 25 feet. Using a drill, install the cable entry plate to your RV roof using 6 pan-head (#10 or #12, not included) screws.
Use a sealant that suits the material of your RV's exterior. If you have to attach the plate's cables to your internal wiring, you need compatible, heat shrinkable butt splices (10 AWG to 6 AWG wiring). Finally, as an additional safety measure, connect a 30-amp in-line fuse (not included) to the positive wire near the battery.

I use this to provide solar power to my house battery (LiFePo) it is sturdy and well made. Now I don't have to leave my pantry door open to charge my battery
by: Nathan 07/15/2023
I used this to get power from a solar panel into an electrical box. Once in the electrical box it connects to the charge controller and whatnot. Using this was super easy and very effective.
by: Bruce04/27/2022
Arrived on time and in perfect condition. Exactly what I had ordered. Excellent service and help ordering! Good job.
by: Keith L.03/16/2019

by: Robert 08/04/2022
Exactly what I was expecting. I will use this on my Scamp 13ft to create a quick connection from battery to solar panel.
I must again say that etrailer has great customer service. Chat, phone, and email have all been top notch customer service. Thanks etrailer for doing that....really appreciate it.
by: Richard 07/25/2022
I used this connector for a wall pass-through on my home. This allows easy connection for outdoor solar panels to my indoor battery storage unit. This product works great.
by: William 07/26/2022
thank you, shipping was faster than what was first said it to be. But inside of box could have used some dunage (bubble rap) as there was nothing but my parts.

See what our Experts say about this Go Power Accessories and Parts
- Is the Go Power Solar Cable Entry Plate with the Smaller Footprint the Current VersionThe correct version is the one seen towards the top of the Go Power Solar Cable Entry Plate # 34273841REVA page. Not the larger one at the bottom. Go Power recently changed the style to a smaller footprint with better injection molds. I have included a picture of the correct one here, to help ensure we are talking about the same one.

- Is Wiring of Go Power Solar Cable Entry Plate with Red and Black MC4 Cables Tinned CopperThe wiring of the Go Power Solar Cable Entry Plate with Red and Black MC4 Cables # 34273841REVA is tinned copper.
view full answer... - Why are Go Power Solar Cable Entry Plates Priced DifferentlyWe have a few different options for the Go Power Solar Cable Entry Plates like the part # 34273841REVA that you referenced. The only real difference is the length of the cable that it comes with. The one you referenced comes with 10 feet of cable whereas we have options like the # 34273843REVA which come with 25 feet of cable. I attached a link to this page that has all of the options we carry.
view full answer... - Availability of Solar Power Entry Plate Pre-Wired with MC4 ConnectorsWe do have a pre-wired entry plate with MC4 connectors with the Go Power Solar Cable Entry Plate with Red and Black MC4 Cables # 34273841REVA. The shorter wires that come with it are 10 gauge but for long runs of 8 gauge like you mentioned this would work fine with it.
view full answer... - Roof Entry Plate For Solar CablesFirst contact your RV manufacturer and see if they can provide you a schematic of your roof trusses and wiring areas to avoid. If they cannot provide you this information I would check some user forums for your brand and see if others can identify areas that they successfully used. Once you have a safe spot determined, the Go Power # 34273841REVA entry plate can make the job easier and provide a well sealed entry point assuming you are using standard MC4 cables.
view full answer... - Can Larger Gauge Wire be Used from the Go Power Solar Cable Entry Plate to the ControllerYou could use larger MC4 cable gauge wire from the Go Power Solar Cable Entry Plate # 34273840 to your controller but it wouldn't benefit you very much unless you used larger gauge wire from the solar panel to the entry plate. Larger gauge wire just ensures that enough power is getting from the power source to the part that needs powering but if the initial gauge wire is 10 then going larger further back wouldn't do anything for you. I recommend using one of the entry plates that comes...
view full answer... - What Size Wire Should Be Used With the Go Power Solar Entry Cable Plate?I wouldn't go larger than 10 AWG with the Go Power Solar Cable Entry Plate for MC4 Cables # 34273840. The larger wire will just make sure that you are getting enough power to your entry plate from the solar panel. I recommend going with an option that already has the power wires hooked up like # 34276245 for 7', # 34273841REVA for 10', or # 34273843REVA for 25'.
view full answer... - Parts Needed to Control Battery Charge with Go Power Eco Solar Charging SystemIn addition to the Go Power Eco Solar Charging System - 10 Watt Solar Panel # 34273836 you'll at least need the Go Power PWM Solar Charge Controller # 34280503 and then I recommend using an entry plate like the part # 34273841REVA to make the installation look nice as the controller will need to be on the inside of your trailer/vehicle. The entry plate I mentioned has a 10" wiring extension but if you need something longer is also comes in the following lengths: 7' - # 34276245 25' -...
view full answer... - Hardware, Wiring, and Entry Plate Needed for 190W Go Power Solar PanelsEach 190 Watt Go Power Overlander Expansion Kit # 34282182 comes with the following connectors and hardware which you can pick up here if you're needing a replacement: Mounting Hardware - # 34272708 MC4 Expansion Branch 1 Male and 2 Female - # 34267049 MC4 Expansion Branch 2 Male and 1 Female - # 34267040 There should also be enough wiring included with each solar panel to link them together although we do have replacements like the 3' Cord # 34274672 or 10' Cord # 34276216. If you're...
view full answer... - Go Power Recommendations for Portable SystemsThe Go Power Solar Cable Entry Plate 34273841REVA with MC4 connections, as installed by RV builders, is generally installed on the roof. If this is the situation with yours then this will not provide a quick disconnect for you unless you use an MC4 to SAE for creating a quick disconnect. The MC4 entry plate is intended to make connections for permanent/semi permanent solar panels affixed to the roof. I suggest the Go Power Portable Solar System with Digital Solar Controller and 200...
