More Electrical Planning

[epretot]

Got to say a very neat installation!!!!

So what's the grand total that you have invested in your system?

I have most of the components in my basement. Quattro, lynx distributor, sok batteries, charge controller, etc.

7500-8000 so far. I haven't ordered wire or fuses yet.

I knew the electrical would be my biggest cost for the house side of the bus (including generator) I got it used for 4000.00. I estimated 15,000 on electric. So, I'll be under that.

I could have easily used two Lynx Power In's as fuse blocks.  The first one, with added 100 amp fuses, to connect the four 24v battery banks.  The second would take the connections for the other four devices in the system (inverter, solar charge controller, 24-12v converter and battery to battery charger).  These four devices all require fuses so the Lynx Power In or Lynx Distributor both work very well.  However, I thought that I would like to have the indicator lights on the Lynx Distributor that indicate a blown fuse so I chose that for the second fuse block.  The Lynx Distributor is significantly more expensive than the Power In so I chose to use one of each.

That's what I thought you were doing. Just wasn't sure I was right.

Thanks
