We strongly recommend connecting a fuse directly to the battery to protect any short circuit at the
battery wiring. Solar PV modules create current whenever light strikes them. The current created varies
with the light intensity, but even in the case of low levels of light, full voltage is given by the modules. So,
protect the solar modules from incident light during installation. Never touch uninsulated cable ends, use
only insulated tools, and make sure that the wire diameter is in accordance with the expected currents of
solar charge controller. Connections must always be made in the sequence described below.

Wiring and installation methods must comply with national and local electrical specifications.
The wiring specifications of the solar, battery and loads must be selected according to rated currents, and
