The numbers on the multimeter screen should be in the 10 range of the numbers on your spec sheet.
Rennogy solar panel which wire is negative.
I do have the controller box with my panels and was told by renogy tech that i would need a 10amp in line fuse for this application.
Only your volt meter will tell you the truth.
The two current values that are reported on the solar panel label specs are isc and imp.
Connecting several panels is done with an mc4 y branch and i use the like this one by powmr.
The bare end of the negative extension wire will now be of negative polarity.
In the conjunction box the left panel and the right panel are connected in parallel.
Imp refers to maximum power.
I had the general idea of where i wanted the solar panels to sit on top of my van but without dry fitting them first i would have overlooked how the mounting holes actually lined up on the contoured roof.
I own two different kinds of solar panels from renogy.
My knowledge of solar panels you could fit in a thimble and still have room so please be as descriptive as possible.
Pictures would be a big plus.
Isc refers to short circuit current which is the current value if the positive and negative solar panel wires come into contact with no resistance.
Parallel means combining all the positives separate from the negative wires.
Series means plugging a positive into a negative on the second panel etc.
Put the solar panels on top of your van where you d like them to be installed renogy solar panels installed on my van.
This wire has both a positive and a negative.
Any and all help in this matter would be greatly appreciated.
If the numbers do not read in this range your panel might need replacing call renogy tech support to confirm at 1 800 330 8678 for the short circuit current test our panels are rated for 1000 watts per square meters.
The right solar panel is connected with one cable to the left panel.
Connect this cable to the mc4 female adaptor.
It goes into the conjunction box.
Make sure that the locking tabs snap in for a firm connection.
There is no color code standard for solar pv panels like there is for ac systems.
These values are reported on the label at standard test conditions stc.
We re not going to mess with this wire at all.
