ENSURE THE SOLAR PANEL IS COVERED AND THE BATTERY DISCONNECTED
The solar panel is to be connected directly to the terminal block from the regulator and NOT to
the circuit board.
Remove the “Dummy” wires and connect the positive and negative solar panel wires to the
terminal block from the regulator (grey / red positive wire - grey / black negative wire). Plug the
piggy back spade connections to the battery terminals on the battery. Note the polarity (

If the solar panel wires need to be extended then we recommend you use a terminal block /
joiner. Place the terminal block / joiners into a small enclosure for protection and outdoor
installation. As a minimum, 1.5mm Twin Active cable should be used to extend the wires.
