Thanks Gerry,
I was interested in when we had a station 40 odd years back, when we had to rely on the old 32V power supply!!! If they had been available, apart from being very expensive, could 12V panels be wired in series. The snag would be the high amperage rate required.

Hi
If you were asking about the possibity to series connect for higher voltages such as your old set up,yes this is the standard thing for domestic use .
Use high voltage low current .
THe voltage will be the sum ofthe solar panel output voltages the current will be the current rating of a single panel
They can also be connected in a series parallell combination to give higher currents. OF course must have appropriate control equipment & battery bank
