First Relay In Solar Panel

The first part of a solar circuit is the solar cell or other device for collecting light and making use of it.

First relay in solar panel.

The diode used in solar panel for two reasons one is to bypass the current another is to block the reverse current flow to the solar panel from the battery. I have quite a collection of solar cells and solar panels most of them salvaged from solar garden lights rescued from the garbage. As you see in the connection diagram at first the solar panel is connected to the solar charge controller and then a 24v battery is connected to the charge controller. When the voltage is high enough to engage the relay and the ldr receives enough light in order to open t1 the relay will switch and the battery will charge.

Fusing solar panel arrays wired in parallel now in the case of 3 panels in series and 4 strings in parallel if one string shorts the max amperage to short is 39 12 which exceeds the 30 amp max current rating of the 10 awg wire. The relay must be of the correct specification. The main data to be noted is the relay coil voltage operating voltage and most importantly the current capacity of the relay. An inverter is connected to the battery.

The size of this fuse is dependent on how many solar panels you have and how they are connected series parallel or series parallel. This is the circuit from this webpage. The diode is used in relay to provide a path for discharging the stored energy in the relay magnetic coil when the power supply is removed from the relay coil. This solar panel power switch circuit replaces the diode and connects the panel to battery through a relay contact.

If the panels are connected in series the voltage of each panel is added but the amperage stays the same. The second fuse between your solar panels and charge controller is a little bit different to figure out.
