30 amp travel trailer. I am installing a VE multi plus ii 12/3000/120-50 along with the lynx distributor and 150/60 charge controller, and 4 – 100 amp hour battleborn batteries and 4 Rich Solar - 200 watt solar panels. I have reviewed documents and videos and am unable to find answers to these questions? I want to keep the 2 - 100 watt solar panels on the roof. They have their own charge controller along with 2 DP interstate batteries. Do I need to do anything specific with them, or the wiring? For the above Victron setup, Do I need to run the + and – 12 volt cables from the lynx distributor to the 12 volt side of my breaker box without any issues. Or is there something specific I need? Also, can I connect my Multiplus ii directly to shore power from the AC IN , and then connect directly to my 30 amp breaker box from AC Out 1? So far I have installed all my Victron components, watching videos, and more reading than I can remember. I have the solar array to install, and the Multiplus ii to the 30 amp 12 volt breaker box.
