Series Connection:
* Positive to Negative: Connect the positive terminal of the first battery to the negative terminal of the second battery.
* Remaining Terminals: You'll have a positive terminal left on the first battery and a negative terminal left on the second battery. These become your 48V output terminals.
Important Considerations:
1. Battery Type: Make sure both batteries are the same type (lead-acid, lithium-ion, etc.) and have the same capacity (Ah).
2. Voltage Rating: The electric car must be designed for 48V operation. Check the specifications of the car or motor controller.
3. Safety: Connecting batteries incorrectly can lead to damage or even fire. Consult a knowledgeable person if you're not sure.
4. Charging: You'll need a charger designed for 48V batteries.
5. Wire Gauge: Use appropriately sized wires for the current the batteries will deliver.
Remember: This is a simplified explanation. Always take safety precautions when working with electricity and batteries. If you're not comfortable with the process, it's best to seek help from an experienced professional.
