In the above figure, there are 6 EG4-LL 48V 100Ah batteries wired in parallel. This battery bank still

maintains the appropriate 48V needed for most Inverter/Charger systems. However, the Amp hour rating

of this bank has increased to 600Ah.

WARNING: Do NOT parallel batteries by using jumper wires on the double terminals. This will

cause high amperage in the final jumpers and potentially excessive amperage on the battery

terminals.

WARNING: When adding or removing a battery from the rack/cabinet,

turn off ALL batteries and remove all cables from the batteries. This

will ensure that you do not accidentally make contact with live

(powered) busbars. This can cause serious injury and/or death.

Connecting Your Batteries to a Busbar

EG4 recommends that you only use a properly sized (amp rated) busbar to parallel batteries together.

1. Connect the battery cables to your positive busbar by removing the bus bolts, inserting them

through the eyelets of the proper cable, and reseating the bolt into the busbar to 60 in-lbs/7nm.

Repeat with all positive cables.

2. Connect the battery cables to your negative busbar by removing the bus bolts, inserting them

through the eyelets of the proper cable, and reseating the bolt into the busbar to the correct

torque. Repeat with all negative cables.

Battery Charging

Once you are ready to charge your batteries, you must ensure that you use the proper settings. This will

ensure that you don't over-charge or damage your batteries.
