How do I connect a solar panel with a high-current Anderson plug to a power station?

Power stations that can be charged with optional solar panels usually come with a solar power input adapter that has MC4 connectors as shown below.

Most solar panels also have MC4 connectors, so they are plug and play. However, some solar panels are supplied with a grey high-current (Anderson-type) plug as shown below. 

To use these solar panels with a power station, you will need the adapter cable below (PS5122).

However, you may need to modify the cable to suit your installation, as this adapter cable was intended to be used the other way around. 

In the picture below, PS5122 has been connected to a power station solar input adapter, and the wiring polarity is incorrect (red should go to red, black to black).

This is easy to fix, and you will need just a small flat-blade screwdriver to do it.

Make sure PS5122 is not connected to the power station or solar panel.

Poke the screwdriver into the grey plug next to the silver contact, and press down on the spring inside until you can pull the cable out of the back of the plug housing.

Do that for both cables, and then push the cables back into the socket with the red cable to - and black cable to +. Make sure they click into place firmly.

You can now connect your solar panel to the power station with the cables.

If your solar panel came with a separate solar charge controller included, you do not need to connect this, as the power stations have a solar charge controller in them.
