Can I Use XT60 Splitters for My Solar Panels without Issues?

Asked By SunChaser423 On

I'm trying to connect around 900 watts from four solar panels to a Delta 2 Max that has two solar inputs, each capable of handling a maximum of 500 watts. If I use an XT60 splitter, will the load be evenly split to 450 watts for each input, considering the panels are wired in parallel?

MPPTs don't really like sharing a solar array because each one tries to find its own maximum power point. This can create some fluctuations in your input wattage and reduce overall efficiency. It's generally better to avoid this setup to keep things running smoothly.

Gotchya. So just go with 2 XT60s wired to their own parallel panels?
