3.6 Terminal Protection
Corrosion can build up on terminals if they are not kept clean and dry. To prevent corrosion, after
tightening the fasteners, apply a thin coat of terminal protector spray that can be purchased through
your local battery dealer.
3.7 Connecting Batteries to Increase System Power
You can increase capacity and voltage, or both, by conguring your batteries as follows:
Series Connect Parallel Connect Series/Parallel Connect
Note: maximum of three parallel strings
To increase voltage, connect batteries in
series. This will not increase the system
capacity.
To increase capacity, connect batteries
in parallel. This will not increase the
system voltage.
To increase both voltage and capacity,
connect additional batteries in series
and parallel.
EXAMPLE
Two T-105, 6V Batteries rated at 225AH
Connected in Series
Two T-105, 6V Batteries rated at 225AH
Connected in Parallel
Four T-105, 6V Batteries rated at 225A
Connected in Series/Parallel
Voltage 6V + 6V = 12V System
Capacity = 225AH
Voltage 6V System
Capacity = 225AH + 225AH = 450AH
Voltage 6V + 6V = 12V System
Capacity = 225AH + 225AH = 450AH
