    Parallel Batteries Connection...
  • Page 18 Why Connect in Parallel? Multiple BB10012i batteries may be connected in parallel to increase the capacity and current of the system. When batteries are connected in parallel, the voltage of the system does not change, but the capacity and current limits are additive.
  • Page 19: Series Batteries Connection

    Series Batteries Connection...
  • Page 20 Why Connect in Series? When batteries are connected in series, current capacities remain the same, but the system voltage is additive. For example, two BB10012i batteries connected in series form a 24V 100Ah bank (shown in the diagrams below) should be charged using a bulk and absorption voltage of 28.8V, and a float voltage of 27.2V.
