1. Solar panels
They convert the power from sunlight into direct current electricity.
2. Charge controller
It controls the panels (1) and batteries (3) voltage, so that the system operates at its maximum power. It regulates the charge and discharge of batteries.
3. Battery
It allows the storage of surplus energy, preventing it from being injected into the grid. This energy can be used during periods of low or null production of the solar panels.
4. Inverter/charger
The inverter/charger automatically regulates the start and stop of the generator (6), while maximizing the use of solar energy and guaranteeing long battery life (3).
5. Distribution box
Location of control and protection devices of the electrical installation. This is where the solar system is connected to the rest of circuits.
6. Generator
If sunlight does not provide enough power, a generator can be added to the system to cover both instantaneous power consumption and battery charging. The generator is connected to the inverter/charger (4), which automatically regulates its start or stop.
7. Energy management
Check the production and consumption of electricity from your computer or mobile device, as well as the battery charge status.
