AmazonWiz, First, I would disagree with this assumption about your battery: * Maximum Depth of Discharge (DoD) 90 Percent For Lead Acid deep cycle type Batteries--Generally you would never go below 2…1 · -
Re: Need help with Off-Grid Batteries, Inverters and Panels
AW, Is this a different system/installation than we have been discussing in the other thread? For Off Grid/Backup Power systems, you do need to size the inverters+battery bank to supply surge power t…1 · -
Re: Need help with series or parallel
Yes, your # of solar panel math is correct (based on my guesses/examples). Power Factor is a large discussion in itself--You need to size the branch circuits and main panel+utility on Power Factor fo…1 · -
Re: Need help with series or parallel
Watts is a "rate"--Like Liters per minute Watt*Hours is an "amount'--Like total Liters pumped So, if you have an "average load" of 62250 Watt and run it 10 hours per day…1 · -
Re: Need help with series or parallel
Technically--the utility looks like a "voltage source" (or an "AC Battery"--Which keeps the 230 VAC voltage "stable" regardless of load). A typical Grid Tied Inverter lo…1 ·
