Hey,

I wish to connect the BB-ACS756 sensor with a Solar Panel.

From the referencing provided, connection to motor is only shown.

Is there a way to connect the sensor with a solar panel of suitable rating?

Thank you. :D :D

Thank you for your reply.

My confusion is that, motor receives current from the battery.

But in the case of the panel, both the solar panel and batteries gives output power.

And i only wish to know the current given out by the solar panel and not the batteries.

Thank you.

You are confused 8-)

OK, take out the current sensor, how will the setup look like, take a photo and I might be able to show you where to connect it.

Thanks for your reply.

Attached is a picture of the circuit drawing.

The square marked in black is the area where im guessing it goes but i need confirmation.

Thank you.
