4. Instalasi

4.1 Urutan Pengkabelan

  1. Connect the battery to the charge controller. Ensure correct polarity (+ to + and - to -). The controller will display the battery voltage.
  2. Connect the solar panel to the charge controller. Ensure correct polarity. The controller will begin charging the battery.
  3. Connect the load to the charge controller. Ensure correct polarity.

Penting: Always connect the battery first and disconnect it last. This sequence prevents damage to the controller from voltage melonjak.

4.2 Pemasangan

Mount the controller vertically on a wall or flat surface in a well-ventilated area, away from direct sunlight, high temperatures, and water. Ensure there is sufficient air circulation around the heat sink.
