Greetings everyone
I need some direction on this one... I'm going to have 3 strings going into a combiner box, each is to have it's own 15 amp breaker, once combined (max of 9 amp each), I was going to run some # 6 wire in conduit back to a din mounted 50A breaker before going to the charge controller. I know the # 6 wire is over-kill.
My question is this: Instead of having the 3 breakers in the combiner box, would it be acceptable to return all three strings to my panel area in the basement (with smaller gauge wire) and mount the string breakers there?
Do you ever need to re-set a string breaker?
Thanks in advance
