Elex Plan Review-Thank you!

Postby Capebuild » Mon Mar 29, 2021 7:43 am

Hello. I'm beginning to understand how my electrical plan might come together. I've posted a few images below. I'd really appreciate
any thoughts people could share and confirm if this plan looks like I'm going about this the correct way. I still have questions about the
batt to batt charging (TV battery charging the trailer battery) as I don't want to compromise my Subaru's alternator, so still researching that.

There will also be a battery monitor and a solar charger monitor located in the galley section of the trailer.
I also realize the MPPT solar charger may be a bit larger than what's needed for the 200 watt panel configuration and I could probably go with a 100/20 instead of the 100/30.

I realize this may be a lot to look at and give your thoughts ....so know that I do appreciate your help.

Thank you.

John

20A * actual Vcharge give max output from the SC

So 13.8 is 275W

14.9 is 298W

Going higher (overpanelling) gets more value out of the SC

Up to 10-15% will only affect very short & rare peak outputs, increasing the critical **average** daily output.

Ideal for shade handling is 1 panel per SC

Okay I would suggest instead of different fuses for every charging source, just take them to a fuse ( one each ) on the blue sea fuse panel. Same with the positve connection for the meter, just take it to the fuse block.

Also while I love voctron stuff, look at the renogy dual source charger. It combines the dc2dc and mppt solar into one unit. Less wiring, less things to fail, but less redundancy
