Dacian,
yes I ordered the same 125amp Midnite solar breaker as well. I too am still waiting for it to arrive in the mail. It seems like a good unit and and is well certified.
I also intend to use it as type 5 but I have decided to only connect it to the charge bus. My biggest concern on a boat with LFP is off-gassing and or fire due to a charge source failing to stop charging , so having a second level (type 5) of protection for charging seems prudent.
Thank you for the referral to the CPC1705. That seems like a good solid state, normally closed relay and I can easily mount it on a project board.
My system is 12volts and the Midnite solar shunt trip is 24volts. I could not find a 12volt shunt trip here or with the Chinese sellers. So I plan to use a cheap 10amp, 12v/24v boost converter to step up the voltage to the shunt trip. This will double the current draw through the CPC1705. I assume that these style of shunt trips do not need more than 1 amp at 24 volts to trip? Probably more like milliamps - but I could not find a specification for the current draw.
As for my shore charger - its remote input needs a high signal to stop charging. So a normal NO relay will not work for me unless its on the AC feed line of the charger. See page 10 of the manual linked above: "the external
shutdown input is a ¼"
male quick connect.
Applying a voltage
between +5 and +32
volts DC (referenced to
the battery negative)
will place the charger
into standby mode.
When the voltage is
removed, the charger
will resume charging"
