I have (4) 12v solar panels that I want to wire in parallel and series to achieve 24v. These panels come in sets of 2 and come with mc4 connectors that basically wire the 2 panels in parallel. Now I have a second set of these panels and so I essentially have 2 sets of parallel wired panels. My question is can I wire these 2 sets in series to achieve 24v without hurting anything? All the wiring diagrams that I see have the panels wired in series and THEN in parallel. In order to avoid having to hack up my existing factory wiring and ordering more connectors and more wire, I would like to simply hook these 2 strings up in series with each other.
Thanks in advance.
Thanks in advance.
