Question on solar controller hook up?
I finished up most of my solar install today and I noticed an issue when hooking up the solar controller to the batteries. I'm using an A/B Both switch to control what bank or banks I want to run....

Why do people keep insisting that there should be a fuse between controller and battery???? Mine has had no problem in 12 yrs with a C40 controller and the only fuse is between panels and controller.
For maintenance I have a switchable CB on the + battery cable and a 2 pole disconnect for the high voltage panels. This was also a consideration for covered storage to eliminate all controller draws.
