Abstract
An electrical connector includes a housing, a contact terminal and a preformed solder body. The housing is configured to be mounted to an exterior surface of a photovoltaic module. The contact terminal is joined to the connector housing and has a connection surface and a fixation opening that extends through the contact terminal. The preformed solder body is applied to the connection surface of the contact terminal and includes a fixation tab. The preformed solder body provides an electrically conductive connection between the contact terminal and a conductive contact extending out of the exterior surface of the photovoltaic module to electrically couple the contact terminal and the photovoltaic module. The fixation tab of the preformed solder body engages the fixation opening of the contact terminal to secure the preformed solder body to the contact terminal.
