  2. MC4 connector - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/MC4_connector

    An electric arc may form which can melt and seriously damage contact materials, resulting in high resistance and subsequent overheating. This is partly because direct current (DC) continues to arc, whereas commonly used alternating current (AC) more readily self-extinguishes at the zero-crossing voltage point .
