Looking for a once over of my blueprint for my 5th Wheel before buying everything if anyone is willing. Rig is wired for 50 amp, 38 feet, 3 A/C's, and good carrying capacity for all the equipment. I live in Arizona with lots of sun.
I am not changing my breaker panel I am simply replacing L1 and L2 with power from the two inverters feeding each 50amp breaker. 12 v loads will stay wired the same but insert an orion 48v to 12v to step down my 48v system. Inverters will not run 24/7, mainly in the summer when its hot and winter when its really cold and as needed otherwise.
Questions/Concerns:
1. I am unsure about the wire size, I am using Will Prowse blueprint so I know the battery to inverter wire size is good. Tried to follow wiring charts
2. Unsure if I should wire all solar in series to one inverter or split in half to each inverter
3. Thinking two EG4 6500 inverters is overkill. Maybe the second inverter can be the EG4 3000? It only has 1 A/C on that breaker
4. Not sure if this system is balanced with only 3 batteries. With lots of sun and not always using full capacity I felt 3 48V Batteries (100amps each) would do the job 95% of the time.
I will post the finished product once installed with how its working. I appreciate any help and see graphic below for the design.
