I'm about to begin the installation of a Xantrex Prosine 2.0 Inverter Charger. My plan is to keep the current charger in place to charge the start batteries and as a back up. Below is a rudimentary diagram.
Here's my battery set up: house 2 8D, start 2 Group 31.
Here's some of my questions:
Am I creating any conflict between the 2 battery chargers?
Should I insert a switch to bypass the transducer if it fails?
If the battery switch is set on both, will the Xantrex be charging both banks?
Should there be any battery isolators in the system?
I would really appreciate any advice on this before I complete the installation.
Thanks!
