I have 500 w of solar PV which is laid on a flat roof of my houseboat , naturally it produces nothing significant at this time of year in that position so I boost the battery charge with a generator and digital charger, should I install a switch to isolate the solar panels before I charge with the back up generator ?
Can you switch off solar PV without damaging the panels ?
I'm thinking the backup charger will be sensing the battery voltage that is being kept higher by the solar although the solar is not adding any charge.
