Diode Recommendation for Taking Two Power Sources from Solar Panels
Published 12/19/2017
Question:
Hello, if I have two solar panels each producing ~8A max and I want to send the two feeds into a single solar controller which only has one line input, can I use RM-790 to collect the two feeds and then send it through to the controller with one line without worrying about backfeed?

Expert Reply:
The diode part # RM-790 that you referenced does exactly what you are looking to do. It takes two power sources and can combine them onto one wire and prevents backfeeding from either circuit. So for what you need this would work well.
