Solar installation for suburban home
The client wanted a solution that could take care of most of their needs. No solar installation will allow you to be completely "off-grid", unless you are prepared to spend substantially more money. The system consists of a 5kVA Sunsynk inverter, with two 5kVA batteries. These are fed by eight panels located on a north-facing roof. The system is remotely monitored and adjustments can be made without physical access to the equipment. This is an essential maintenance feature.
What the system does well is that it takes care of the family's day to day requirements. Obviously, extraordinary situations, as what happened in Pretoria recently where collapsed power pylons caused a blackout across the city for two days, will put pressure on the system. This, together with a day of rain and heavy cloud cover, required the owner to switch off appliances that were not absolutely necessary. However, throughout the trying time, the family could continue normally.
What to do next
It is not a matter of whether the national electricity grid will collapse. It is simply a matter of when. Do not let this happen to you. Protect yourself, your family, and your home against the chaos this will result in.
