Wiring the batteries in a series-parallel configuration increases the current and
voltage of the battery bank. Series-parallel wiring is more complicated and care
should be taken when wiring these banks.
To construct a series-parallel battery-bank follow these instructions:
Step 1 - Wire Batteries in Series Strings
• First wire the batteries in series (voltage adds) with the positive terminal of one
battery connected to the negative terminal of the next battery to meet the
inverter's DC input requirements.
