OK more progress yesterday.
Changed out the 2/0 for 6 awg to feed the bus bar.
Much easier to work with the 6 awg. Biggest issue I had was finding 6 awg 1/2" ring terminals to fir the switch. Lesson learned here is I could have downsized the switch and saved a few $$.
I then moved on to wiring in the second MPPT. This was abit of a strugke as the 8 awm PV wire I chose is VERY Very stiff and getting the connections to hold took a bit of doing.
I tied in both MPPT controllers to the PV circuit breakers.
I mounted the circuit breaker box to the front bay ceiling for the extra room to route cables.
So far so good - I still need to run the PV wires into this from the panels.
