what distance between inverter and batteries

[kenbob]

I was wondering what distance could I keep inverter and controller from batteries ,I want to install batteries outside of home and inverter and controller inside ? any help would be appreciated

The farther the distance, the larger the voltage drop. Larger wire can compensate.

10ft ok, 20ft ok big money, 30ft+ gonna be getting ridiculous.

30ft+ gonna be getting ridiculous.

At typical 50-55;volts of batteries the current loss multiplies in terms of power loss at AC output of 240 volts.
