I am trying to built my own system and learning,
I am trying to calculate the size wire needed from my panels to combiner box, and from combiner box to charge controller.
my specs are
6x440 watt panels
WIRED 2S3P
VOC 52.6
VMP44.3
ISC 10.53
IMP 9.93
its about 12 feet to combiner box and 230 feet to charge controller.
so from the panels to combiner box, I should enter 9.93amps, 52.6Volts and 12 feet?
and from the combiner box I should enter 30 amp, 105 Voltage 230feet
What I am getting is to the combiner box should be 12 gauge, and to the charge controller should be 2 gauge.
can someone double check me please, I don't want to waste money on the wrong size wire, and several wire calculators give
different answers?
thanks in advance.
