Connecting two solar panels in parallel.
How to hook 2 solar panels together.
This is the first part of our video on how to connect your panels in series and parallel.
Theses are the diodes that i use they are the same ones that are used when building the panels.
Then they are connected to the charge controller or to the inverter of the solar system.
If we have two solar panels with same voltage and power the connection will be very simple.
Parallel series and a combination of parallel and series.
Connect the negatives to the negatives and positives to the positives.
Nonetheless it is possible to wire them in parallel.
The parallel connection allows to increase the current keeping the same voltage.
Parallel connection of two identical solar panels.
To power a dual battery system you ll need to connect the panels in parallel.
As clearly visible in the picture it will be enough to wire the positive pole of one panel to the positive pole of the other one and then wire the negative pole of one panel to the negative pole of the other one.
Connecting multiple solar panels.
If both panels are rated at the same maximum voltage then you ll get maximum output.
The video will go over the basic installation and can apply directl.

There are 3 ways to connect solar panels.
If we have two or more solar panels with the same voltage but with different current it is not possible to wire them in series.
