SIMPLE STEPS TO INSTALLING AN UN-INTERRUPTING SOLAR POWER IN HOMES, OFFICES and OFF GRID



*This article will help you on Solar Panel Installation.
*Determine the No of Solar Panels needed
*Batteries Rating and their Backup time
*Inverter/UPS Rating
*Required Load and and their Wattage.

AFTER READING THIS ARTICLE, YOU WILL BE ABLE TO;

To determine the rating of Solar panels and decide on the number of panel required for each project

→ To determine the back up time of your batteries
→ To calculate and determine the charging current for your batteries
→ To Calculate and determine the Charging time for your batteries
→ Inverter/UPS Rating to withstand your load requirement for eace project you plan and

Are you ready to learn this?, i know you will love this article, now
let's START:

QUESTION:


Supposing you have a 1000watt load and  want to install a solar power to generate a backup power for 5 hours to support you main power failure.

now this is what you should consider first before embarking on order and purchase of any product.

these are your requirements;
*Load = 1000 Watts
*what size of Inverters Rating =?
*My Required Backup time for batteries = 5 Hours
*The Required No of Solar Panel =?
*Required No of batteries =?

NOW THIS IS HOW YOU GET DONE

Solution:


→Remember inverter should be at least 25% greater than the total Load
*SO,
load x (25/100)
1000 x (25/100) = 250watts
1000+250 = 1250 Watts
You have now gotten the size of your inverter as = (1250watts)


*since the required Back up Time = 5 Hours,
Suppose you want to install 100Ah, 12 V batteries,
then, you do it this way,




Power (P) = Volt (V) x Current (I)
12V x 100Ah = 1200(watt hour)
Now for One Battery (ithe Backup time of one battery)
1200 Wh / 1000 W = 1.2 Hours

But but since your required Backup time is 5 Hours.
Then, divide the required time by the backup time of one battery
