I know nothing about this. If your question was about plumbing I'd know lol

We have an electrician coming to finish rewiring the house next week. We just hired out for that because both my husband and I are afraid of electricity lol.

The battery is big enough to burn the house down if it goes haywire. I get that I'm an electrical nonce, too...

I never said to anyone that I understood electricity or ever wanted to touch the stuff.

Bigger wire reduces that chance as far as I can work out, but if I can't work out the fuses and inbuilt system management shit, I fear frying stuff too.

Frying a 30 amp solar regulator is nothing... they can be had for 40-120 AUD...

I just need some guidance of wire loads, fuses, and how to set up a system that has no free accessories or plug ins.
Pay a pro and do it right. Don’t kill your house

I figured it out awhile ago. Went with thicker gauge cables and decent blade fuses.

Works quite well.
