How To Connect Two Solar Panels Together
For this example i am showing you connecting panels that are for a 12 volt system.
How to connect two solar panels together. If both panels are rated at the same maximum voltage then you ll get maximum output. Wiring solar panels in a parallel circuit connect all the positive terminals of all the solar panels together and all the negative terminals of all the panels together. For example our 115w sunpower solar blanket has the following ratings. Connect the negatives to the negatives and positives to the positives.
The first way i am going to talk about is parallel because this is probably the most common way that panels will be connected. Parallel series and a combination of parallel and series. There are 3 ways to connect solar panels. Then they are connected to the charge controller or to the inverter of the solar system.
Maximum rated voltage 19 8v. Connecting two solar panels in parallel.
