Creating a battery bank involves combining two or more batteries for a specific purpose. This connection allows for an increase in voltage, amperage, or both, offering a solution for higher power requirements. Two primary methods for connecting batteries are in series and parallel.
When batteries are connected in series, their voltages are added, while the amperage rating (Amp Hours) remains constant. For instance, connecting two 6 Volt batteries in series results in a 12 Volt output with a total capacity of 10 Amps.
On the other hand, connecting batteries in parallel increases the current rating while maintaining the same voltage. In this arrangement, the output voltage remains constant, but the Amps increase. It is crucial to use appropriately sized cables to accommodate the Amp rating of the battery bank.
A Series/Parallel configuration involves both increasing voltage output and current rating. This requires a minimum of four batteries. By connecting two sets of batteries in parallel and then joining them in series, a bank with 12 Volts and 20 Amp Hours can be achieved.
In a Series/Parallel connection, electricity flows similarly to a single battery. Connecting two parallel connections in series is feasible by using a single cable to bridge a positive terminal from one parallel bank to a negative terminal from the other. It is essential to use batteries of the same type, size, and rating within a battery bank for optimal performance.
