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 in Banks
You can increase capacity and voltage, or both, by conguring your batteries as shown in Table 3.
Table 3
Series Connection Parallel Connection Series/Parallel Connection
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 225Ah
Connected in Series/Parallel
System Voltage = 6V + 6V = 12V
System Capacity = 225Ah
System Voltage = 6V
System Capacity = 225Ah + 225Ah = 450Ah
System Voltage 6V + 6V = 12V
System Capacity = 225Ah + 225Ah = 450Ah
