1. Information incomplete. (AmpHour/ AH rating of batteries not specified) 2. Why do you choose to have a parallel connection which gives you 12V X 3 = 36V as opposed to series: 12V, 3XAH rating of batteries?. In this way, you are making use of 36V cumulative battery voltage with a 12V inverter. Which is wrong! 3. Why connect charger and load simultaneously?, rather, connect a switch/change-over in-between. 4. 12v external charger to charge your 36V? , bro you are kidding! your charger will overheat, and could cause a fire. Be careful. N.B: I'm not an electrical engineer. I'm a medic, but my knowledge of basic principles of physics always comes handy in cases like this. |

pato405: Parallel connection of batteries is to give same voltage higher current, I agree with you on the positioning of charger issue though. @OP LV isn't my strength but I would say your charger/load connection needs a second look |

the connection is in parallel and will give an output voltage of 12v. As long as your inverter is rated for 12v their should be no problems. |

netotse: My apologies, I was wrong. in parallel, you have same voltage (12V), cumulative Amp-Hrs. Nevertheless, For further consideration on best performance and safety, it might be most important to consider what OP wants to power (total wattage of appliances). wotcha think? |

The design is ok. 3 , 12volts batteries in parallel will give u 12volts which can work with ur 12volts charger and d 12volts inverter. D load should be on the inveter output and not on the batteries. Make sure the batteries are of the same AH. Cheers |

Bros.. Your design is faulty. And its the connection of your charger... U are supposed to connect both legs of ur charger to the battery exactly the way you connected your inverter. |
