4. Instalación e cableado

Unha instalación axeitada é fundamental para o funcionamento seguro e eficiente do seu controlador de carga solar. Siga estes pasos atentamente.

4.1 Secuencia de conexión

Always connect components in the following order to prevent damage:

1. Conecte a batería: Connect the battery to the controller's battery terminals. Ensure correct polarity (+ to + and - to -). The battery terminals should be installed with safety fuses. Ensure the distance does not exceed 150mm.
2. Conectar a carga: Connect your DC loads to the controller's load terminals.
3. Connect the solar panel: Connect the solar panel to the controller's solar energy terminals. Ensure correct polarity.
4. Power on the controller: The controller will automatically power on once all connections are secure.

Nota: If you want to connect an inverter, connect it directly to the battery, not to the load terminal of the controller.
