DIY Solar Panel System: Battery Bank Wiring
I show and explain how and why I wired my solar panel battery bank the way I did. I explain the fundamentals of battery bank wiring and the pitfalls if done incorrectly.

How do? u configure 150A fuse connected to power inverter
February 27th, 2013 at 1:27 pm1500 continuous 3000 surge.?
February 27th, 2013 at 2:06 pmYr power? inverter support how many wattage
February 27th, 2013 at 3:02 pmYr inverter fuse is 150a yr soler? fuse is 30 , how do u calculate amperage
February 27th, 2013 at 3:55 pmAwesome. I am glad it helped. When I started I had no idea how any of this worked. Now it is easy.? 🙂
February 27th, 2013 at 4:19 pmmost thorough video on the subject i have seen —thanks gonna start mine now? since you made this understandable to me –lol!
February 27th, 2013 at 4:47 pmWhat? 12v device?
February 27th, 2013 at 5:40 pmI mean can I use 12 v device on 24v inverter on? 24v battery bank
February 27th, 2013 at 6:20 pmIf 24v battery bank 24v inverter ,will 24v? inverter accept 12v devices
February 27th, 2013 at 6:41 pmIf your battery bank is 24v and you want? to run 24v appliances you don’t need an inverter.
February 27th, 2013 at 7:37 pmOr? 24v power inverter work on 24v devices
February 27th, 2013 at 8:25 pmI mean , can I use any 12v devices on the 24 v power? inverter
February 27th, 2013 at 9:11 pmNo. I am not powering any 12 volt devices only 110 volt.?
February 27th, 2013 at 9:58 pmThe amperage on solar pannel is 30 amp? ,amperage in power inverter 150 amp ,how do you configure the amperage
February 27th, 2013 at 10:25 pmYr solar pannel 24v? ,yr power inverter 24v any device 12v can use 24v power?
February 27th, 2013 at 10:35 pmI video the preps I have at my home. I provided links below the video so you can create any battery bank you? want. There are some great diagrams and info there.
February 27th, 2013 at 11:23 pmI wanted a well made, pure sine wave inverter so I can recharge batteries, etc. A modified invert will not? do that. The battery charges is a quality unit that will last me years. I did do quite a bit of research. These items are what work best for me.
February 27th, 2013 at 11:51 pmAs always, great video! I “screen printed” your diagram for use with my system. I’ll be building a 24v system too here shortly. I too will be putting spare battery charger and a spare inverter into a Faraday cage. What made you choose that particular inverter? Had you researched inverters for awhile?? Same question for the battery charger.
February 28th, 2013 at 12:15 amCan u made? video for 12 v system thanks
February 28th, 2013 at 12:47 amyou did a good job i am a master electrician when you are connecting +? lugs that are parallel in the circuits and the same with – lugs but connecting the battery’s is in series
February 28th, 2013 at 1:08 amThey are rated by volts. Mine is a 24 volt controller? because I have wired my battery bank to be 24 volts.
February 28th, 2013 at 2:01 amfor the charge controllers, are those rated at 24 V as well? or are they rated by power, which in your? case would probably be a lot of current? am i understanding that correctly?
February 28th, 2013 at 2:17 amOk Thanks?
February 28th, 2013 at 2:44 am2000w x 18 hours = 36,000 watt hours. Two 200 watt panels making 400 watts x 5 hours = 2,000 watt hours produced a? day.
February 28th, 2013 at 3:31 amim interested in setting up a solar system i want to run say 2000w pretty much all day lets say 18hrs a day, in order to successfully power it how any batterys and panels would i need? will 2 200w? panels and 2 12v agm batteries work?
Cheers
