Solar Battery Prep
If needed, remove all batteries from enclosure.1.
Using a multimeter, verify the voltage of each battery. The battery voltage should
be 12.7 VDC or higher. If the battery voltage is less, charge the battery with a
battery charger. If a battery charger is not available, then the SPP should operate
without load for 24 hours to recharge the batteries.
2.
Refer to page 34 for battery wiring during installation.3.
Solar Panel Prep
Remove the solar panels from the shipping containers.1.
Voltage and current should be verified for each panel before installation. To do
this, temporarily place a solar panel pointing directly at the sun. Using the
multimeter, verify the Voc of the panel. The reading should be +/- 15% of the
manufacturer specification.
2.
Using a spare piece of 10 AWG wire, short the positive and negative terminal of
the solar panel. Read the insolation value using the insolation meter and the DC
current using the ring multimeter. The current reading should be +/- 15% of the Isc.
For example, if the Isc specification is 8 A and the insolation meter is reading 500,
then the multimeter should be reading approximately 4 A.
3.
Perform this procedure for each panel. Remove the shorting wire when completed.
