I am working towards putting in solar for a small cabin we are building in the woods. Since the sunlight is limited at the cabin, I plan on putting the solar panels in a transmission line easement (part of our land) about 150 feet away. This is the setup I was planning so far:
1 300W 24V Renogy Solar panel (not purchased yet)
MPPT 30a Controller (not purchased yet)
100Ah LifePO4 Battle Born battery (purchased)
2200W pure sine inverter (purchased) that will run to a circuit breaker
So, I was planning on putting the controller right by the panel (mounting it underneath maybe). What type of wire do I need to run from the controller to the battery back at the cabin? I'm thinking I will put it in PVC conduit and bury it, but wasn't sure what type and gauge of wire would be needed.
Thanks so much for any help anyone can lend. I'm open to changing anything I haven't purchased yet too, if I'm heading down the wrong road.
