Battery Connection Methods
4.2.1
Series Connection
12V + 12V + 12V + 12V = 48V Ah remain at 100 Ah
Series Connection (Voltage increases, amperage stays the same as a single battery)
4.2.2
Parallel Connection
Voltage remains at 12V 100 Ah + 100 Ah + 100 Ah + 100 Ah = 400 Ah
Parallel Connection (Voltage stays the same as a single battery, amperage increases)
4.2.3
Series and Parallel Connection
Voltage increases to 48 V
Ah increases to 200 Ah
2 Strings of batteries in series, connected in parallel
Series/Parallel Connection (both voltage and amperage increase)
Refer to table 4.1 for the correct cabling sizing.
