How do you wire 3 12 volt batteries to get 24 volts?

You do not need three 12 volt batteries to get 24 volts, all you need is two batteries. So I assume by using three batteries you want to increase the amperage. Wire two of the batteries in series and then wire the third battery to the second battery in parallel and you will have 24 bolts. Or you can just wire two 12 V batteries in series to get 24 V.


How do you wire 3 batteries to get 24 volts?

Connect three 12 volt batteries in series. You will triple the amperage but the volts will remain at 12. Click the link


How do i wire two 12 volt car batteries to make one 24 volt battery?

To get 24 volts from two 12 volt batteries, hook the positive post from one battery to the negative post of the other.


Can you use 4 12 volt batteries in a 24 volt system?

Yes, if you wire them as two pairs in series to each other. Two batteries in series will give you 24 volts, and another two in series will give you also 24 volts. put the two 24v groups in parallel and you have 24 volts.


How can you wire 4-12 VDC batteries together to get 24 VDC out of them?

You would connect two 12-v batteries in series to get 24 Volts, but if you have four, you can connect two sets of batteries in parallel and then connect the two sets of parallel batteries in series, giving you 24 volts with twice the ampere-hour capacity (four batteries rather than two).


How do you wire 3 12 volt batteries to get 24 volts how to connect the wire?

Wire two of the 12 volt batteries in series and the third battery in parallel with the other two. As the two batteries wired in series will give you 24 volts but the amps of only one of the batteries, unless you need the extra amperage of that third battery I would just go with two batteries wired in series. But if you want to use three batteries then connect the positive from one battery to the negative of the other battery. This will give you 24 volts. Now just connect the negative of the third battery to the negative of the first battery connected in series with the second battery. Now connect the positive to the second battery to the positive of the third battery. You will now still have 24 volts but twice the amperage of one of the batteries.


How do you get 24 volts from 2 batteries not in series?

Two 24 volt batteries in parallel will give you 24 volts. The only other way is two 12 volt batteries in series.


How do you make 2 12 volt batterys 24 volts?

Connect them in series and you will have 24 volts but you will have the same A/H as one of the batteries. Volts double but A/H stay the same.


How do you put 2 batteries in series?

Wire minus - to positive +. Know that this will increase the voltage but the amps will stay the same. Wire two 12 volt batteries together in series and you have 24 volts. Click the link.


Can you use three 8 volt batteries to make 24 volts?

Yes, if you put them in series.


How do you wire 24v motor?

for automotive purposes, you will need two 12 volts batteries connected in SERIES. That is, connect the two batteries with one cable from positive to negative. That will give you 24 volts. In order to charge both batteries with one alternator, you will need a battery equalizer


Will wiring 2 batteries in series hurt your boat?

Depends on the battery size. If your boat is a 12 volt system and you wire two 12 volt batteries in series you then have 24 volts. If the batteries are 6 volt batteries you will be fine. If you have a 12 volt system on your boat and want to use two batteries then wire two 12 volt batteries in parallel. You will still have 12 volts but will have double the amperage available and this will extend the running time of the batteries.
