i think you forgot the lock nut on the mc connector or as you call it bx p.s. bx dosnt have a ground in cable-also mabey proper size crew driver you are going to slip and hurt your-self-i like how you guess at fuse sizes is that how they do it in the national electric code book-perhaps you are re writing the code as you go–man i wouldnt sleap in tat house and i suggest you dont either–be sure to keep fire extinguisher handy
500w angle grinder ect is gonna make the inverter pull 50A from the battery that’s why the 20A fuse blows, try using a higher rated fuse.
Be smart – don’t pay any more electricity bills. more info: solar.xfollow.me (Copy to your browser’s address bar)
Where you go to school 1-800-Im-a-HACK. One code violations one after the next there buddy…
the inverter must be plugged directly to the batterys in the inverter socket on your charge controller.
Do not use the 12V output on the charge controller
maybe the inverter can’t handle it
In a house Black is hot this aint you honda civic!
I installed a 130 Watt panel with two marine batteries. I have fused the system with a 20 amp auto fuse going into the charge controller and into the batterys. When I plug in a higher amp appliance (500W food dehydrator, angle grinder, etc) to the inverter I blow the batter fuse. What am I doing wrong?
OK first black is neg do you need to change both colors and add that blue jumper to make this a real HACK job no permit here
hummm?………….using solid wire for DC solar??………going to get power loss, from what i understand, you need to use stranded wire to help reduce the power loss of DC current!
In US/canada green is ground, green/yellow is europe
i totally agree. he should be hooking the power source up LAST..not first. we were taught to isolate the danger. some sensitive electronics would not survive this guy’s method.
Well this guy probably knows where to hook up the parts, but it is obvious he is dangerous when considering the code issues and grounding.
oh!!!! ok
green/yellow is ground, not green, at least in Sweden…
