I purchased a battery disconnect switch to disconnect the solar panels from my solar charge controller. (see attached image) I am not sure I purchased the correct thing.
It is a 'Battery Disconnect Switch 12V 24V 48V Master Isolator Cut Off Switch'. It states it has a 275 Amp continuous rating for 1 hour. My solar charge controller is a 'Victron SmartSolar MPPT 100/15 Solar Charge Controller 100V 15A with Bluetooth'. Should I be looking at volts or amps in the rating of the switch?
Can someone tell me if this switch is safe to do the job? If not what would a better compact alternative be. I have a very small camper.
I am not using the hardware that came with the switch.
Thanks!
