It just adds a bit of extra resistance.I’m trying to determine the best lay out. I have a few questions down the road but thought I’d begin here: any ideas on layout. First question is is it detrimental to have something fused twice.?
What are the external connection items? I see an ATS so i would try to match height and convenience for those plugs(?).any ideas on layout.
Thank you sir, at this point I have 50 amp fuse, little black one in the pix, I’ve got to verify if the inverter has an internal fuse and also the BBorn batteries.Fuses in series is fine so long as they don’t add resistance to the system. Quality products quality workmanship.
Thanks, little direction helps. As I assembled these parts I just became bewildered as to how to stack them, time will help.What are the external connection items? I see an ATS so i would try to match height and convenience for those plugs(?).
Inverter to battery as close as possible since those will be your biggest, most expensive, hardest to bend wires.
Right now I have a dc digital multi function meter, that has a component that looks like a fuse(it’s marked 100 amp 75 mv, fl-2 .5) and it mounts on the neg. side. I also have a 50 e9 tocas breaker, that Mr Prowse has mounted going into the mppt.It just adds a bit of extra resistance.
Are you thinking of fusing the positive and negative side of a circuit perhaps?

OK, tomorrow AMPlease post a picture of the "dc digital multi function meter".
That is 100A shunt, not a fuse. You will need small in-line fuse for the Monitor module in case the module shorted so the small wire feeding the power to the module will not catch on fire.Right now I have a dc digital multi function meter, that has a component that looks like a fuse(it’s marked 100 amp 75 mv, fl-2 .5) and it mounts on the neg. side.

Thanks Mr. Martin, this shunt was not part of W. Prowse blueprint. I was at a site that just said this was a nice meter for the money and useful after installation.That is 100A shunt, not a fuse.

Hello Doc, when using bus bars, neg or pos, should there be only one terminal per stud, and how do you determine the wire size for the smaller connections in a solar system.Fuses in series is fine so long as they don’t add resistance to the system. Quality products quality workmanship.
You are never going to become a sports color commentator using words like “shunt”.That is a shunt.
This is very true but my farm reports were chock full of awesome.You are never going to become a sports color commentator using words like “shunt”.
