GlennWest Posted November 23, 2022 Report Share Posted November 23, 2022 Do I need this for the solar? 250vdc at 10 amps. Or just unplug one end at panels and make connection at breakers?

D&J Posted November 23, 2022 Report Share Posted November 23, 2022 Just cover the panels, no sun no juice.

GlennWest Posted November 23, 2022 Author Report Share Posted November 23, 2022 (edited) That is a lot of cover. The entire roof. I have done ac with no gloves just be careful not to touch ground. Be easy to do that with the pv wire. All 4 ends are tapped so I should be safe.

Randyretired Posted November 23, 2022 Report Share Posted November 23, 2022 Whenever I do solar I leave the panels unplugged until all of the wiring is done. That voltage, especially DC 😱. Don't take chances and be very careful. My choice is to wire everything and then plug the panels in after dark. Then switch things on one at a time.

GlennWest Posted November 23, 2022 Author Report Share Posted November 23, 2022 Sounds like a good plan.

Don't be parked under a Walmart parking lot light when doing this. My panels were charging at night at one. I still have trouble believing that happened.

GlennWest Posted November 23, 2022 Author Report Share Posted November 23, 2022 I hooked up the pv wires this evening. No sun and cloudy. No problem. Got battery disconnects mounted and wired. Hot line to one inverter.
