Your solar panel likely has MC4 connectors. Renogy sells an adapter to connect MC4 to SAE 2 pin flat connector here. Contact them with questions.

Called marty last week to confirm + and - wiring from solar.   green was +.      black -.   Also bought the renogy mc4 to sae 2pin converter.   one side clicked right in.  the other struggled.  would not lock down.  I ended up taping it but disliked that.   cut the converter off and went with the extra 2 pin (male) ATC gave me.  the other thing I did not care for, on the mc4 converter, was that it was really stiff and stuck  up further than the sae 2pin.   would not have been an issue if my solar pre wire was not coming out of my roof.  It did not make a very good 90 degree turn to get to my panel.   more of a higher arching loop.
