Step 1: Hook up the battery to the charge controller. Connect the battery terminal wires to the charge controller FIRST, then connect the solar panel (s) to the charge controller. For detailed reasons, see Should We Connect Batteries First Instead of Solar Panels to Charge Controllers?
Your solar panel is now connected to your charge controller. Take the panel outside and place it in direct sunlight. Here comes the moment of truth. Head back to your charge controller and check for indications of solar charging.
Note: When setting up your system, the solar panels should be out of the sun or covered for safety reasons. Step 1: Hook up the battery to the charge controller. Connect the battery terminal wires to the charge controller FIRST, then connect the solar panel (s) to the charge controller.
The simplest possible solar battery charging circuit is just to connect the positive wire from a solar panel to the positive battery terminal, and the negative solar panel wire to the negative battery terminal. This was the main practice back in the day, and will quite happily charge a battery! However, there are two potential problems:
Solar panels can be connected in a series or parallel, and charge controllers should be rated to handle the appropriate amount of wattage, voltage, and amperage of the system’s solar input. The first piece of advice: do not cut corners when purchasing a charge controller.
There you have it! You’re basic solar panel setup is complete. The solar panel will collect solar power, and then the charge controller will take that power and adjust its voltage and current to safely charge the battery.
