Thanks pete 4mm thick wire is a lot thicker than the wire off the sargent plug
I don't know what your Sargent lead is but 4 mm is the recommended wire from Kyocera and will avoid voltage drop so you get the maximum output from the panels. Don't forget to put an inline fuse as near as possible to either battery or in your case the Sargent module
The man from sargent watches this forum and will hopefully put you right.
