To connect your solar panel to the Redarc In-Vehicle BCDC Battery Charger - Dual Input - DC to DC - 12V/24V - 25 Amp # 331-BCDC1225D you will simply connect the power output wire from the panel to the yellow wire on the BCDC you stated. The other wire of the solar panel will simply be the ground wire connection. You will connect that to the frame if your vehicle or trailer.
