Precautions when working with Charge Controllers If two or more solar panels are connected in series/parallel make sure that the sum of the short circuit current ratings of all panel strings does not exceed 80% of the charge controller’s current rating i.e. 8 Amps or 28 Amps.
Nature Power 8 Amp Charge Controller is an easy to connect and easy to read charge controller with LED light indictors for battery charging cut-in voltage 13V and battery full cut out voltage 14.2V. The 8 Amp Charge Controller is compatible with solar system arrays rated up to 130 Watts.
Please note the installation shown is for connections to the Nature Power 8 Amp charge controller. To receive information on connections with the 28 Amp Charge Controller please refer to the 28 Amp charge controller manual. When installing solar panels configuration and systems, please carefully observe correct cable connections and polarity. The solar panels can be damaged by not observing the correct electrical installation and polarity; in addition, this will void the warranty of your solar panel(s).
2. Then connect the black alligator clamp to the black terminal of the second or late battery in the bank, again matching polarities, negative to negative. This will ensure an equal charging across both or all batteries. Connecting an Inverter An inverter can be used to converting the 12 Volt energy created to 120 Volt Electricity. Inverter sizes and types vary depending on your power consumptions needs. Please discuss which inverter to purchase with your Inverter dealer.
If you choose to mount your Solar Panel to your RV, be sure you solidly mount your panels to the roof. If you have a rubber roof over thin plywood you may want to use molly fasteners to get a better grip. If you have a fiberglass roof, drill some pilot holes through the fiberglass to reach plywood below. This will prevent cracking or damaging the fiberglass. If your RV is equipped with a metal roof you must mount the solar panel to the joists supporting the roof.
