How To Hook Up Solar Panels And Controller To Battery

Following the guide solar panel charge controller wiring diagram to wiring and set up the solar charge controller battery bank and solar panels in the solar power system.

How to hook up solar panels and controller to battery.

A good charge controller will average the voltage fluctuations of the panels and output a steady charging voltage to the batteries. Once you ve attached the input wires to the charge connector you should have 2 loose wires each ending in an mc4 connector. If it is the usual 12 volt battery set the controller to 13 8volts. First connect the battery set the working mode of the load via solar charge controller connect the solar panel connect the load in the last when disconnecting the solar power system disconnect in the reverse order.

You can set the desired voltage on the charge controller depending on the capacity of the battery. Connecting charge controller to battery once the voltage has been stabilized by the charge controller it can now be channeled to the battery for storage. Connect the wires from the controller to the solar panel. Connect the charge controller to the battery bank with battery cables.

You will get enough power supply to make connections and use them. A complete note on solar panel installation with calculation examples the dc load light fan etc is directly connected to the charge controller and can be fed up by two power sources. Match up the male and female connectors with the opposite ones coming away from the solar panel and snap the mc4 connectors into place.
