Hello, I am installing a solar power system on my camper. Due to the size of my roof and location of vents, I am needing to use different sized panels. I have 4 Rich Solar panels rated at 335watts, 24v, and 10 amps and then I have 4 Rich Solar panels rated at 200watts, 24v, and 6 amps. I was planning on doing 4 different series connected in parallel. 1st series: 2 335w panels, 2nd series: 2 200w panels, 3rd series: 2 200w panels, & 4th series: 2 335w panels.
These are the panel links:
335 Watt Panels
200 Watt Panels
My questions are:
1. Can I use 1 to 4 y connectors to connect all 4 series in parallel or should I use a combiner box?
2. If I can use the connectors, do I need to use fuses at the connectors?
3. Also if I can use the connectors, any suggestions on the best 1 to 4 y connectors?
Thanks in advance!
