A correctly designed “off-grid” system will have a battery bank capable of delivering a minimum of 3 days back-up power in the event of poor weather, and if required, a generator can be connected to recharge the system. We can also have a generator configured to automatically start and supply extra power to your system when required.
- Sun shines on the solar panels generating DC electricity
- The DC electricity is fed into a regulator which controls the amount of charge
- Deep cycle batteries are charged
- 12-volt appliances can be run directly off the batteries or the current routed through an inverter which converts it to 240V 50Hz AC electricity; suitable for running standard home appliances.
