Three adjacent panels in parallel (12V systems) 300W

Three 100W Panels in parallel
One of the most basic solar configurations involves wiring two solar panels in parallel.
This parallel configuration will increase the current output while the output voltage
remains the same. Fig.6 above shows the arrangement for connecting two solar panels in
parallel with one pair of MC4 Y-Branch Connectors. This arrangement is applicable if two
solar panels will be mounted adjacent to one another. This connection requires one (1)
pair of MC4 Branch Connectors. When the panels are mounted at different locations- that
is, separated by a distance, the panels must be extended with MC4 Extension Cables
(sold separately).
Three solar panels is the maximum amount of panels that can be connected in parallel if they
are adjacent to one another, without using extra cabling. Fig. 7 above shows the arrangement
for connecting three solar panels in parallel. Remember that this arrangement is applicable if
the three solar panels are to be mounted adjacent to one another. This connection requires
two (2) pairs of MC4 Y-Branch Connectors. When one or multiple panels are mounted at
different locations- that is, separated by a distance, the panels need to be extended with MC4
Extension Cables (sold separately).
