PWM (Pulse Width Modulation) controllers are not recommended as they cannot efficiently handle the output of TOPCon+ panels, resulting in significant power loss.</p><p>The controller&apos;s current rating (e.g., 20A, 40A) must be sized to handle the total solar array output. Contact our team if you need assistance sizing a controller for your system.</p></div></details><h2 class="ka-section-title" id="installation--wiring">Installation &amp; Wiring</h2><details class="ka-faq-item"><summary class="ka-faq-trigger"><span style="font-size: 16px;">How do I mount these panels to my vehicle or caravan roof?</span></summary><div class="ka-faq-content"><p>KickAss TOPCon+ panels feature a robust, corrosion-resistant aluminium frame with pre-drilled mounting holes for secure installation. You will need a suitable mounting kit (such as the <a href="https://kickassproducts.com.au/products/kickass-mounting-kit-for-the-170w-fixed-glass-solar-panel?keyword=solar%2520" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">KickAss Solar Mounting Kit</a>, sold separately) to fasten the panel to your roof or rack.</p></div></details><details class="ka-faq-item"><summary class="ka-faq-trigger"><span style="font-size: 16px;">How should I wire multiple panels together?</span></summary><div class="ka-faq-content"><p>Panels can be wired in series or parallel, depending on your system requirements.</p><ul><li><strong>Parallel Connection (Most common for 12V systems):</strong> Connect all positive (+) terminals together and all negative (-) terminals together. This increases the total current (Amps) while keeping the voltage the same. This is ideal for charging 12V battery banks.</li><li><strong>Series Connection:</strong> Connect the positive (+) of one panel to the negative (-) of the next. This increases the total voltage while keeping the current the same. This method is typically used for charging 24V or 48V battery banks.</li></ul><p><strong>Safety Warning:</strong> Before connecting panels in series, you <strong>must</strong> check the maximum open-circuit voltage (Voc) rating of your MPPT charge controller. Exceeding this voltage will permanently damage the controller.</p></div></details><details class="ka-faq-item"><summary class="ka-faq-trigger"><span style="font-size: 16px;">Do I need to install a fuse for my solar panels?</span></summary><div class="ka-faq-content"><p>Yes. For safety, an appropriately rated fuse or DC circuit breaker must be installed on the positive line between your solar array and the solar charge controller. This protects your system from overcurrent conditions and short circuits. The fuse rating should be selected based on the total short-circuit current (Isc) of your solar array.</p></div></details><h2 class="ka-section-title" id="compatibility">Compatibility</h2><details class="ka-faq-item"><summary class="ka-faq-trigger"><span style="font-size: 16px;">Are these panels compatible with the KickAss PowerBoss or Control Hub?</span></summary><div class="ka-faq-content"><p>Absolutely.
