I built my van into a RV, and I chose the natures generator elite two pod setup.
I currently have two solar panels per pod.
I bought two more solar panels, so I can have three panels per pod. That will max out my units.
My problem is I can't get to the wiring to plug in the three way cable connectors.
So I asked for help advice on cutting the cables and splicing things back together. They told me no, the cables can't be cut or shortened. I assume they say this just to protect themselves from my DIY mistakes.
So I came here to ask for guidance.
I want to cut off all the excess solar cable length that is not needed. Is that okay to do ?
Is it okay to solder the wires together in parallel wiring ?
Does anything need addressed when cutting up and connecting everything back together ?
Can I splice into cable anywhere I want joining wires anywhere along the length of cable ?
I plan on soldering wires together and shrink wrapping.
It seems basic no big deal, but I'm not sure if there's rules I need to be aware of for doing this.
Thanks for helping me.
