The invention relates to the technical field of photovoltaic cable or wire installation, basic electrical elements, connecting devices and adhesives, in particular to a photovoltaic cable fire extinguishing protector,
system, material and method for an MC4 connector. The protector comprises a hollow shell, a perfluorohexanone microcapsule patch arranged towards a heating area, a composite seal, a limiting structure and a high-
viscosity heat-conducting interface material, and a
closed cavity is formed after the hollow shell, the perfluorohexanone microcapsule patch, the composite seal, the limiting structure and the high-
viscosity heat-conducting interface material are assembled. The equivalent
heat transfer gap is limited, the equivalent ventilation rate is checked through a concentration-
time curve, the patch explosive load is determined according to calculation, second-level establishment is achieved, and the
volume fraction not lower than the fire extinguishing threshold value is maintained within the set time. The device does not need
external energy supply, has the functions of mechanical protection, rapid fire extinguishing and after-
combustion inhibition, and is suitable for various outdoor photovoltaic scenes.
