A solar inverter, or converter or PV inverter, converts the variable direct current (DC) output of a photovoltaic (PV) solar panel into a utility frequency alternating current (AC) that can be store in battery bank and rest of the power use to run the load at day time.
For remote cabins or vacation homes, or where utility power is not an option. OutBack’s power electronics provide the backbone infrastructure for people producing their own power through renewable energy resources such as solar, wind or traditional generators.
Battery bank - The battery bank stores the solar charge for use by the inverter. In a normal day solar energy keeps varying depending on cloud formation, shadow and time of day etc. The loads connected to the inverter will also be having its own variations in loading pattern. Hence it is very essential to have a battery backup to act as a buffer and for storage of electricity produced through solar. Use C10 tubular batteries which are available in the market exclusively for solar systems.
