And tested the current of each Driver.

 

Driver 1: 4.48A

Driver 2: 4.46A

 

So both seem to be functioning correctly.

 

i plugged the arlec cost meter in while testing the Current.

 

It read:

 

Driver 1: 2.24A and showed 525W

Driver 2: 1.12a and showed 242W

 

That is with both drivers connected to the same board.  Me thinks the Alrec has given me a bum steer to start with and all was actually fine.

 

I then wired them back up.... again..... (forrest gump voice).... .

 

And measured the following:

 

Driver 1 with boards 1 and 2:

 

Current: 4.48A.  (The Arlec red 1.08A and 252W).

volts: 50.5V 

 

Driver 2 with boards 3 and 4:

 

Current: 4.46A.  (The Arlec red 1.06A and 251W ).

volts: 50.7V

 

So, both are working fine... Arlec seems to have given me a bum steer.

 

Ohh, well, was a nice way to waste a day of my holidays

 

Time to set up the tent!!!

Yeah I suspected the arlec meter, don't even know where mine is any more. Might be at the bottom of the local tip for all I know

these 32" hanging rails could easily accomodate another panel.  

 

That will be the next upgrade.  couple more panels and new drivers
