This involves varying charge stages voltages and current depending on the type of battery and other factors.
Solar panel wiring to charge controller.
The charge process is performed in a smart or intelligent way.
Enter the distance in feet from your solar panels to your battery bank charge controller.
A charge controller or charge regulator is basically a voltage and or current regulator to keep batteries from overcharging.
A solar charge controller is designed to receive power from a solar panel or array of panels and use it to charge a battery or bank of batteries.
A charge controller is a determining factor when it comes to solar panel wiring.
Enter solar panel output voltage.
It regulates the voltage and current coming from the solar panels going to the battery.
Click on calculate to see the size wire required in awg american wire gauge.
Maximum power point tracking mppt charge controllers are for wiring solar panels in a series where pulse width modulation pwm charge controllers are used to wire solar panels in parallel.
If you have any dc load then you can connect it to the output of the charge controller.
As you see in the connection diagram at first the solar panel is connected to the solar charge controller and then a 24v battery is connected to the charge controller.
Usually 12 24 or 48 volts.
