Hi again
In a previous post I shared the scheme of my Van electrical system. It is almost set now, but I have some small doubts...
https://community.victronenergy.com/questions/33770/van-solar-electric-scheme-24v-and-12v.html?childToView=33841#answer-33841
Mostly about Negative / Ground
here I share a scheme with three options on how to connect Orion 12/24 to the negative busbar
which one is more correct?
many thanks
If the busbar of the 24V battery is connected to ground/the chassis then every setup will work.
If not, only A will work.
Dear All,
I finally buit the scheme avove, and connected the busbar to the Van ground. All seems to work fine.
I have a question, when I leave my van in the parking, do I need to disconnect the Orion from the battery or it is fine to leave it connected. Sometimes, when parked (no engine running) the Orion gets a little hot (not much). Is that normal?
many thanks
More questions, sorry.
What wire thickness would you use from Van Battery (100A 12v) to the Orion TR12-24/20 (the lenght of the cable is 2m)? Thanks
