Now that it’s light out, and I’m not exhausted, here are some better pictures of my new solar cabinet with descriptions.
Each series pair of panels comes in and goes to buss bars to be paralleled. There’s room for one more pair if I can figure out a good means to mount them securely atop the trailer.
This then goes through a 1000V 50A DC breaker that doubles as a solar panel disconnect before feeding the Outback Solar FM60 charge controller.
The panels are 325W with 45Voc and 9A Isc. The FM60 has 150V max input, and 60A max output. With an expanded 2s4p, the most the breaker and charge controller should see is maybe 110v and 40a.
The FM60 output then goes to 12V system power buss bars. I have a 150A DC breaker for that connection, but I’m out of beefy wiring to connect it. Almost all the 12v wiring is left overs from our old camp solar system. I plan to replace it with better wire and connectors and a neater layout eventually.
I left room in this top section for another charge controller on the left and an AC breaker box on the right.
