Hello,
I have…
- an HQST 12/24/48v 60a scc.
- a Weize 12v 100ah LiFePO4 battery.
- a 12v 3000w psw Inverter.
- pos and neg bus bars.
- 6awg cable for the scc to the bus bars.
- 2/0 awg for the battery to bus bar.
- 2/0 awg for inverter to bus bar.
- 63a din breaker for scc.
I think I need to add a breaker between inverter and bus bar but am not sure what size. 3000w at 12v is 234a. The inverter will surge 6000w for a moment.
I’m a little confused about this as the bms in the battery has 100a discharge / 200a burst. Does that mean I’d actually need two batteries in series to take full advantage of the inverter? Rather that I won’t exceed the amps because the battery bms will shut off?
Do I need a breaker / switch for battery to bus bar if there’s already one on the scc and possibly (depending on answer to above)!the inverter?
What else should I add? I just don’t want it to melt the first time I use the coffee maker.
