I dont know much solar panels but if I have two 100 watts solar panels and I get someone to connect them for me in parallel for usage on my solar generator, after connecting them in parallel will I get a total of 200 watts coming from the sun to charge my solar generator? My solar generator has maximum amp of 8.5. If the amps double after connecting in parallel will this damage my solar generator??
i have 4 100W panels , do you recommend doing 2 sets of series and then connecting them in parallel? would that give me 400w's at 11A?
instead of just saying 'you should not connect in parallel. it's just my opinion.' you should explain why Duh!!
Maybe buy a tripod for filming?
Clear as mud
I just bookedy the Anker SOLIX F3800. It has 2- 60amp max connection ports. I was going to buy 6 – 400watt panels and run 3 in parallel to each port. Does this sound right? I’m a solar newbe. Panels will be VOC under 60 volts and VMP over 32 volts. Thanks
Would like to see 4 in parallel.
Show your array was 1 series and one parallel connection at 24 volts.
Nice job
Please share which connection is best for solar pannels. . perallel or series? I mean to get best solar energy.
And also give me both connections in easy way to connect 6 150 watts pannels
Thanks
I am from pakistan.
Thanks so much bro. Please, i have 2 300V panels, 200amp battery and 60amp charge controller. What's the best connection for me?
Using 400w panels, could I wire my panels this way to the Ecoflow Delta Pro?
Can I do the same thing like this with SAE connectors?
OK.. I'm a complete newbie in solar. Should I connect two pairs of solar panels in series ( wired as two sets ) and then parallel or the other way around. I believe the end results are the same with current and voltage but am wondering if the panels being wired parallel and the two pairs joined in series would result in a more stable situation or does it make no difference? Please forgive me as I just really do not know and I'd rather appear stupid than burn up my panels or power station. Thanks in advance for your help. I "WILL" be fusing the panels regardless. I'd rather be safe than sorry. Thanks again !
Sorry.. what is feet exactly???
cool
You sound like you may know what you are doing, maybe you can figure this out.
I have 12- 100W 20V 6A panels wired in parallel going to a 1300W GTI.
Each panel individually puts out about 21V.
At the end of the parallel string, I get 16V without a load.
Instead of 60A, I get about 3A.
I fused each panel and all fuses are good.
I am about to buy renogy panels and cables in the sale but I am trying to research which AWG to get for the extension cables. No one seems to talk about it. How would I find out which would be needed?
I’m a total novice. This is so jury rigged that it scares me to death. I need help here and this does nothing for me. The comment before mine says condescending and that is correct.
I will be doing parallel with just 2 panels, I think, because the portable power station I want to use 2 panels on when it is cloudy will tolerate only 30 volts for the DC input, and my folding panels are 22 volts, so I cannot do series and double the volts. Now I need to assess whether the MPPT controller in the unit can handle the amps, I guess.
so the more volts you add the lower the amps so can use a small gauge wire? where in par the amps go up alot and need a much larger wire? am i getting this correct?
Which type of connection is preferred. Parallel or series
What do I do when my solar panel has a Sigle 9v power female end instead of a positive and negative?
REALLY BAD INSTRUCTIONS
This guy advertised his video as being one that focused on, and explained how to connect two solar panels in PARALLEL. Yet instead of focusing on that specific issue, he starts blabbering so incoherently on his stated topic and keeps switching back and forth between series and parallel that trying to watch this video wound up tying my brain into knots and I finally got so disgusted that I shut the video off. Is this supposed to be a beginner's video how to or is it aimed at people who have 10 or 20 years of experience dealing with
solar configurations?
I score this video with a major F minus. It did NOT provide me, as newbie to solar, with the answers to the questions that I thought the
title would give me. All it succeeded in doing was to confuse me even more than I was when I clicked on the video.
Really a great video for noobs to understand. Thanks bro!
Not very helpful, condescending with it
Thanks for information.
I have Specific use for this information, since my install is limited to TWO panels, whereas most vids deal with arrays larger than Two.
I am hopeful to get a Definitive “answer” as to optimizing my Two panel (Van) installation
