4. Eto ati fifi sori

Follow these steps for proper installation of your solar charge controller. Ensure all power sources are disconnected before making any connections.

Ilana onirin:

  1. So batiri pọ: Connect the battery to the controller's battery terminals. Ensure correct polarity (positive to positive, negative to negative). The controller will detect the battery voltage.
  2. So fifuye naa pọ: Connect the DC load to the controller's load terminals. Ensure correct polarity.
  3. Solar Panel: Connect the solar panel array to the controller's PV terminals. Ensure correct polarity.

Pataki: Always connect the battery first, then the solar panel, and finally the load. Disconnect in the reverse order: load, then solar panel, then battery.
