Wiring Calculations:
There are no wire sizes visible in this drawing and there is a good reason why this is not available
in any drawing on the Victron website. We at Victron do not know what the physical size of your
project is and it therefore will be impossible to give you specific wire sizes that will fit your setup.!
But there is a very handy tool available from Victron called Victron Toolkit for Android and iPhone
users. In this app you will find Cable Calc that will help you size any cable for AC and DC.!
This will help you find all the right cable sizes for your project. !
Wiring Unlimited:
This is a book freely available for downloading from the Victron Website. !
This book is all about electrical wiring for systems containing batteries, inverters, charger, inverter/
chargers and so on. With this book Victron aims to explain wiring basics of electrical systems.
This book helps to explain the importance of ‘getting it right’ and the issues that might happen
when a system has inferior wiring. It also assists electrical installers or users to troubleshoot
issues that have arisen from bad wiring. This book will certainly help to get it right and to make
sure proper conclusions can be drawn for the electrical systems its readers are involved with.!
Using the Victron-Remote-Monitoring / VRM app or website:
Monitoring of your installation can be done either with the Cerbo in front of you or from anywhere
in the world using an internet connection as shown in the drawing with VRM World that connects
to the Victron VRM portal either using the Victron connect app or website. Just login to your VRM
account or setup a new one and tap on your account to view your installation. You can for
instance set alarm status information for the state of charge or SOC and this will automatically
warn you when a certain level has been reached. This is extremely useful when not being on
board for a specific amount of days or winterizing mode and.…. It is free of charge !!
