Patent attributes
A connector system for photovoltaic roof tiles has a body and a plug assembly with latching means. The body portion has a latching member and a rib defining a recess for mating with the plug assembly. A pair of cavities extends inwardly from the recess. The latching member has a projection, and integral conductors are formed within the body portion. The plug assembly has an indentation for retentively receiving the projection, and an indentation for receiving the rib. A pair of protrusions extends from a peripheral end of the plug assembly and receives a cable terminal of the plug assembly. The protrusions engage with and seal off the cavities to form an electrically conductive path with the cable terminals when the body and the plug mate. The latching projection retentively engages the plug. The plug assembly disengages by manipulation of the latching member projection member.
