    Help... wire size

    Its not blown. I cut the circuit at the wrong spot when connecting the new battery which has been relocated to the back of the rv. The fuse protects the slideout motor. Its an autoreset fuse or something. This is where both original pos/neg cables connect. This is where i need to bring new...

    Help... wire size

    No power. I originally removed my pos/neg cables from the original battery and replaced them with new wires from the new battery at the back of the rv. This cut the power to the motor entirely. The slide out motor is in line with the original battery circuit at the front of the rv. So to keep...

    Need some advice inverter

    I agree. My 2/0 is rated for 400amps at 50 feet. Safe to say there should be no issue running an extra foot of cable to have it the way I want. This is the progress. Next is to finish building the battery. Once done it's time to wire the whole thing into the RV's 12V system so I can have power...

    Need some advice inverter

    Hi everyone, first post here. I'm setting up my solar and I'm torn on inverter orientation. Option 1 has short battery cables but ac block is facing me, and display is upside down on inverter. Option 2 (shown in pic), i need an extra 18" of cable from bus bar, but ac block is facing the back...
