Hi, I am installing a 12V system for a small shed with one 410W panel, a 1000W giandel inverter, one 12v 100ah SOK lifepo4 battery with a SOK shunt battery monitor and a 40A epever Scc, I have seen Wills video (DIY 400 Watt) and read his book but I still have some doubts.
1.- Since I dont have 12V appliances I am not installing the fuse block, in addition to the battery bolt one do I still need 2 circuit breakers or I just need the one for the Scc?
2.- For the 40A Scc I am planning a 50A circuit breaker, can I use something like this?:
As this type dont seems to be able to work with a 4 gauge wire probably I have to use a different one, what is the technical name for a circuit breaker that could handle that?
3.- For the battery I am planning a 100A fuse, it seems that the recomended one is a class t fuse, I found one online but it says voltage type is AC: can I use it?
4.- The wire sizes I will need are: from pv panel to scc 6mm, from battery to inverter 5.1 mm, from scc to circuit breaker 4.1mm, am I on the right track?
5.- I could place the Inverter and scc at almost floor level or put it about 1.5 from the floor to be able to read the Scc screen easier, which one is better?
6.- Are there any European providers for wires, connectors and fuses?
Please excuse me for the long post.
Thanks
