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 …

  1. Yes there is,? you can transport twice the power on 24 volt on the same diameter of the wire

  2. Guys, making your own home energy does not have to be hard (I used to think it did). I’ll give you some advice right now. Look for a alternative home energy known as Xobotano Home Energy (do a search on google). Seriously, Xobotano Home Energy has save huge amounts of my money. I probably should not even be? talking about it because I do not want a bunch of other folks out there running the same “game” but whatever, I am in a good mood today so I will share the wealth haha.

  4. to? hook up a wind turbine you’d first need to make sure it’s a DC motor/turbine, if it’s AC you’d need to hook a diode up to the positive. After that you’d hook up the positive and negative to the charge controller just like you would a solar panel. I’m in the process of making a wind turbine right now and haven’t gotten to that part so make sure you verify this information elsewhere, hope this helps- cheers!

  5. I looked at that site and it is about grid tied. Unfortunately, grid tied systems are being sold to people who don’t know much anyway, and i know an electrician who has begun to sell these kits that he puts in and he doesn’t know a thing about batteries. When I had a consultation, they told me they didn’t use batteries. When i asked what happened in an outage, he said you? then use a generator.. Well, that is what the panels are for. And the batteries.

  6. Hoping you can help me with mine. I? have 36 VDC panels going in. 900 watts solar and 400 wtts wind. I have 60 amp Outback controller. I have a 12 VDC Aims 10,000 watt inverter. I currently have five 12 vdc marine batteries, have to gradually increase my system one or two at a time. My batteries are 91 amp hours each.I have both the controller and the inverter connected to the end batteries (they make the loop).I don’t know how else to wire it, but I would like to put them on different batteries.

  7. Very good ! My rule of thumb? on this…charge your battery from positive of battery # 1 and negative from last battery on your bank. Pull power into your inverter from the the other ends of your bank. Say you have eight lines 48 volts system with 4 @ 12 volt batteries in series, connect charger to battery # 1 (left to right, at top) and negative battery # 32 (extreme right bottom). Pull power to inverter from positive battery # 8 (top, extreme right) and negative from # 25 (left, bottom)

  8. Great job good to see another out there? look at

    BUILDSOLARPANELS.SEXYI.AM

    hundreds of members at this web site

    to the end

  9. could you explain the use of the battery tender? there is a pos/neg going to the batteries. and in the link you have provided. there is an A/C power into the charger that connects to the batteries.. the charger is getting power from where? do the charge controller from? the solar panels charge the batteries?

  10. Hey There! Thanks for this useful video. By the way, I hear lots of people keep on talking about Xobotano Home Energy (search on google), but I’m not sure if it’s good. Have? you tried using this alternative home energy known as Xobotano Home Energy? I’ve heard some incredible things about it.

  11. I was one of those who never had the courage But now that we have managed to build a solar panel and have advanced in knowledge and think make money from it not only saves It is unbelievable You can find here ABOUTSOLARCELLS.COMXA.COM all the tips guidance …. will learn how to build end help build keeping in touch with them and THOSE with EXPERIENCE help them find what they need and guiding is one of the best in? the market believe me ABOUTSOLARCELLS.COMXA.COM

  12. If you rotated your battery drawing to show them in series it would? be much easier to explain…

  13. I am also worrying about one more thing many invert-er are available in market. The manufacturer write on there pure sine wave but in actual that have not pure sine wave. If that have not pure sine? wave out put may be it will harmful my home appliances.

  14. Why would you use an inverter, if you? can also wire it up in series to get your voltage?

  15. They would be wired ahead of the batteries. One thing about wind power is that the power it generates is obviously changing constantly? and requires both mechanical and electric ‘braking’ to use a familiar term. Once filtered properly they would go into the charger array as any other source voltage.

  16. Hey There! Thanks a lot for this helpful video. By the way, I notice lots of people keep on talking about Xobotano Home Energy (do a google search), but I’m not sure if? it is good. Have you tried this alternative home energy known as Xobotano Home Energy? I have heard several unbelivable things about it.

  17. These guides are very easy to follow. A lot of people need to see this. Thanks? for sharing!

  18. with a 24v over a 12v you can run smaller wire longer distances(solar? array -further away) yes?
