    CLICK ON THE SMALL DRAWING BELOW TO VIEW A MUCH LARGER SIMPLIFIED VERSION OF THE SOLAR SYSTEM AT THE K4ABT QTH.



    A = PhotoVoltaic (PV/SOLAR) panel(s) 90 Watts @ 15 Vdc
    B = SOLAR panel disconnect. Contacts must be at least 2 times maximum charging current/amperes.
    C = Model C30A Charge Controller" .
    D = Battery Disconnect; Contacts must handle at least 20 amperes at charging voltage.
    El = etc... Battery bank of 13.8 VDC deep cycle (VOLTEC/Dynasty), low maintenance batteries.
    Parallel batteries El, E2, E3, etc. USE EXTREME CAUTION WHEN HANDLING BATTERIES!
    F = LOAD DISCONNECT and FUSE or circuit breaker(s). Load circuits fused according to maximum load(s).
    G = Single point, system (earth) ground.
    NOTE: Use separate fused circuits for separate loads. DON'T GANG LOAD EACH CIRCUIT!



    One of my Packet Radio nodes near Evington, Virginia. This node is all SOLAR powered. Because I use ''VOLTEX'' DYNASTY GelCells at the site... I only do maintenance on it once a year. ENOUGH SAID!





    The ''heart'' of a SOLAR POWER Plant is the C30A Charge-Controller.


    The heart of a SOLAR POWER Plant is the C30A Charge-Controller.

    The flow diagram with all components of the SOLAR System at K4ABT.

    The C30A, PV charge controller combines intelligent charge control with easy to understand battery status to provide maximum charge level and long battery life; The C30A includes spike and surge protection. The controller also features a LED charging indicator.

    Convenient Wire Terminals are Set-screw type terminals mounted in back of controller enable installation of wires to be hidden from view.
