How Do You Set Up A Solar Panel System

I purchased my batteries new and were only at about 60.

How do you set up a solar panel system.

The first thing you want to do is charge your batteries with a charger. While the batteries are charging you can set up the solar panels and get them wired up and ready to go. Solar panel setups should also have a disconnect switch that will turn off the solar panel system. For example if you have a cabin that you can t connect to a power grid and you don t want to rely on a traditional gasoline powered generator you might consider installing a small photovoltaic solar power system.

This will insure they are charged to capacity and ready to go at set up. Most residential solar power systems are referred to as grid tied systems meaning they are still connected to the power grid and can utilize it for backup power whereas in remote areas with undeveloped land and limited access to grid power off grid systems are more common. At the back sides of the solar panel a small junction box is there with a positive and negative sign for polarity. A dc disconnect which disconnects the dc current between the solar panels and the inverter and the ac disconnect which will disconnect your inverter from the grid with grid tied systems.

Once the battery s has been connected and the charger display or status lights turn on you are ready to connect the solar panels. Wire the solar panel. Solar panels come as 12 or 24 volts. In fact many solar panel systems have two disconnect switches.

Once your solar system is paid off you will have decades of free energy.
