    I have the 80 Amp 3-Phase Bridge Rectifier. Should I install it close to my 3 phase ac generator or closer to my battery banks for the best dc amps and volts? The Hydro generator is about 325 ' from my house.

    Wow! That is a distance! You will need thick wire to minimize power loss.

    You want to install the rectifier a few feet away from the battery bank.
