Thanks For the thorough reply Tim, valuable and extensive detail there, and

goals/theory of overcurrent protection, as well as voltage drop/cable ampacity
more than my already-too-long post might infer.
Thanks for the -qu

Hi Dave,
Your ACR doesn't function as you describe; it is just a relay, with no charging
intelligence built in except that it will only close when it senses charging (a
voltage above a certain level for a certain time) on one or both battery banks.
That shouldn't matter too much if both banks
Hello all,
Wondering about the practical vs the theoretical here.
Am upgrading the DC system, adding a Group 24 dedicated start battery, and
connecting the two group 31 in parallel to double the capacity of what will
become the dedicated house bank. Am adding a blue sea switch and ACR.
