So, I am living in northern California. I have 12 panels, but for now only plan on running 2 of them I think. The specs are,
Rated max power. 220w +-3%
Open circuit voltage. 36.6
Rated voltage. 29.2
Short circuit current. 8.08
Rated current. 7.54.
Max system voltage. 1000
Fuse 15 a
My charge controller is MPPT 40a
12/24/36/48v
Max pv voltage 150v
Max pv input power 480w (12v) 960w (24v) 1400w (36v) 1700w (48v)
I have 4 brand new 12v deep cycle everstart 690 marine cranking amps and 101amp hours @ 1a.
I planned on running them in parallel and hope to achieve sufficient power for a few hours when sundown and replacement throughout the day without generator if I plan with weather right. One thing I'm still not certain about is circuit breakers. what size I should get.
Eventually I'd like to get the farm powered by more of it such as well, pumps for irrigations, power tools at times if I upgrade the battery system and get bigger or more charge controllers. But for now this will do for lights, charge phones, and a small led tv.
Any advice greatly appreciated.
