Wiring Diagrams

Welcome to your ultimate guide for battery wiring diagrams!
Whether you’re working with 6V, 8V, or 12V lead-acid batteries, this section walks you through exactly how to wire them in series, parallel, or both — building systems from 12V all the way up to 48V. From simple single-string setups to more advanced multi-string configurations (up to 3 in parallel), we’ve got clear visuals and step-by-step explanations to help you get it right the first time.

No guesswork. No confusion. Just clean, safe, and efficient battery wiring.
