I'm installing renogy 400w solar kit this weekend on a cargo trailer, and renogy's 700w inverter. I have one 79Ah battery, and will buy 3 more, for 12v parallel. I have 4 circuits of lights I want to put up also, parallel.
I am new to electricity, can you please check my diagram to confirm fuse and wire sizes?
Questions:
1) with regards to the parallel light circuits, can I ground each individual light to the trailer frame directly beside each light? So there would be no return negative wire to the fuse box? This way I would save on wire.
2) i am worried the lighting might be too bright on 2 of the circuits, the 3rd and 4th circuits on the diagram. Is it possible to put a 'dimmer' at the beginning of these circuits, that would send a reduced amount of power to the circuit, and thus make the entire each light less bright? Thinking about it now, I doubt this concept would work, but I will ask regardless. One circuit has trailer dome led lights, the other has bulbs (red exterior running lights I want to put up for effect).
3) can I mix the lighting amperage on a circuit? Circuit 2 has 3 lights, one of them is different from the other 2.
Thank you in advance!
