Extending Charge Device Location (AC or Solar)
If charge device cable needs to be extended to reach the charge
controller
use “Ranger Charge Cable Extension Pigtails” Part Number
630038 (see figure). These DC plug pigtails connect to each end of a
customer provided extension cable. Connections should be made in customer
provided water tight box. Use charts below to determine wire size needed for
the distance to be extended. The cable must be a 2 conductor cable, stranded
wire recommended.
Do not modify the transformer or solar panel cable, this will void
the product warranty.
1. Splice mate for the charge controller to cable end located in control box.
2. Splice mate for the charge device to cable end that connects to charge device.
A water tight junction box should be used to keep connections dry.
3. Install DC plug connection and splice into junction box.
