![]() ![]() If you're really tight on roof space you can stick with 3 panels and use one of these.Ģ) Technically you would need another transfer switch to switch between generator/shore power to prevent those two from ever ever ever being used at the same time. In this way you will have a single pair of wires coming in through the roof to the solar charge controller, and you can put that through an in-line breaker/switch. ![]() no need for a large bulky combiner box and a bunch of cables going to it. Then you'll have 4, and can wire two pairs of panels in series and then put the two pairs in parallel with a simple Y adapter up on the roof. I would take the money saved from getting rid of the combiner box and instead get another solar panel. With the 3 solar panels you have, you're well within the current rating and open circuit voltage rating of the charge controller whether you wire them all in series or parallel. Open to all thoughts and recommendations of course.ġ) I dont think you need the combiner box. I'm also considering getting a renogy inverter/charger/converter combo to do my inverting to AC from DC battery and also my converting from AC shore power to DC to charge battery but those are a bit pricey. Would this system all work together? Would that item you recommended be a better fit. Solar Charge Controller: Renogy 40 amp 12v mppt Īuto Transfer Switch: 30amp in 30amp out Ĭonverter/smart charger: Powermax PM4 60a 110v to 12v DC with smart battery charger These are the components I am considering: This is the concept I am going for minus the alternator charging part: I drew up a diagram of what I was thinking but don't know how to attach it here as a file (first time posting on Reddit). ![]() I have not bought anything yet so this looks like a good potential option.
