Good idea, I'll do that.
I've just built a dump load box from an aluminium cookie box and will use the alarm panel for distribution from the wind/solar and to the loads (dump,pump1, pump2)
Basically, I would try to combine your Diode Isolated Input Panel you mentionned above (http://www.fieldlines.com/story/2008/6/24/0179/40235) and the Fused Power Distribution Panel (http://www.fieldlines.com/story/2008/6/7/21233/94327) into one single panel. Or maybe keep them separated as I was just given an old home-brew stereo receiver with a large steel case that could be used for either the diode panel or the distribution panel. For for thought.
Anyway, I have few questions, just to make sure I get it:
1a)I was wondering if there is any reason for not combining thee 8x 12 gauge wires going from the "Fused Power Distribution Panel" to the battery into one large wire? If not, do you have any idea how I could combine so many wire into a large 8 gauge wire I have around? I can't seem to thing of any good way...
1b)I remember reading that the ghurd dump load controller must have it's own wire going from the battery and not using the same wire than the dump load. I guess that means I would use one large wire for everything but the controller, and another one for the controller.
2)Do you combine the input from all the solar panels and the wind turbine in the "Diode Isolated Input Panel" before sending it into the "Fused Power Distribution Panel" (terminal #5) ?
3)Just so I understand, your "New 12V fused distribution panel"
(http://www.fieldlines.com/story/2009/3/18/232910/066), is at the point of use, but you still have the "Fused Power Distribution Panel" by the battery, right?
