2.5 - PARALLEL CONNECTIONS
There is more than one option to meet your energy requirements. For example, to
meet the requirements for a 210 Amp-Hour system, you may use one (1) 210
Amp-Hourbatteryortwo(2)105Amp-Hourbatterieswiredinparalleltomakeup
the210Amp-Hours.Connectallthepositiveterminalstogetherandallthenegative
terminals together in the string. See DIAGRAM 3belowforproperparallel
connection.
2.6 - SERIES / PARALLEL CONNECTIONS
Batteriescanbeconnectedinbothseriesandparalleltoattainthedesiredsystem
voltageandenergyrequirements.SeeDIAGRAM 4belowforproperseries/parallel
connections.
Foroptimumperformance,thesystemspositiveandnegativeleads
shouldbeconnecteddiagonallyopposite(catty-corner)fromeachother.
Installation
Parallel Connection:
Capacity is increased in a parallel connection
Two 12V, 105AH batteries = 12V, 210AH
DIAGRAM 3
Series/Parallel Connection:
Voltage and capacity are increased in a
series/parallel connection
Four 12V, 115AH batteries = 24V, 230AH
