Benefits of Solar systems in the home

  Benefits of Solar system 

1. Individuals can save thousands of dollars 
2. Persons can start saving for day one 
3. Low payback period 
4. Increase your home value 
5. Gov't incentive on solar system 
6. solar is a secure investment
7. Guaranteed performance
8. Save the environment
9. Create energy Independence 
10. Solar is easy to install  

To go solar has never being so easy 

Two types of solar Air conditioner

There are two types of hybrid solar air conditioner system. one which utilizes both  power sources power form the home and power form the photo-voltaic system the following principles are mention below.

  Operational Principle

On   sunny day, the solar panel can provide the power together with grid power to start the air conditioner running, at it can save above 60%-95% power. And when the air conditioner stop running at sunny day, the solar panel can produce the power to return to electricity grid. In cloudy day or night time, the air conditioner can automatic to switch to AC electricity power.This link will show and explain the operation of a Hybrid solar Air conditioner system https://youtu.be/qTYGloPSGec

Say goodbye to high electricity bills

Hi guys i am  conducting research into the concept of solar air conditioning system for this blog, i will examining the price of a conventional system and also the benefit of a solar air conditioning the image below shows a house which has a solar air conditioning system.

1. Save 50% to 100% of electricity bills for life 
2. It protects the environment 
3. It utilize a renewable energy source (sun)
4. In times of a nature disasters it can provide standby power 
5. It can store potential power for weeks via batteries.   

Sizing the major components in a photovoltaics system

Hi Guys  the components below shows the  images of a charge  controller and a invert-er the functions of those device   differ from each other.  while one device regulate the unstable voltage coming from the solar panels the other convert DC to AC.They are consider the heart of a solar system  here is a link that explain the various type of controllers  https://youtu.be/KPZhtGLfGn4 and this link explain the different types of invert-er  https://youtu.be/75NMRgom-6w use in a solar system. my next post would be the sizing the battery bank for the solar system also 

The image below shows a schematic diagram of rooftop  PV system  and the sequence  and place of the components. The solar panels are located at the top of the roof its usually place like this in the Caribbean.This is to ensure that the panels are not tempered   with,  when installed  the panel array it is usually place north to south on the roof to capture the sun rotation.

The charge controller regulates the DC voltage from the solar panels and then send a changing voltage to the batteries, the batteries store the electrical voltage and the inverter convert dc voltage to alternating current which can be utilizes in the household. 

Hi guys this a topical single line drawing of a solar system configuration the images below show the installation of a solar panels at  a job in eastern side of the island Trinidad and Tobago. This  link which show how to install solar panels and the various connection  that can be use to ensure that the right choose of  connections are use. 

Photovoltaics system installation and house wiring

In Trinidad and Tobago there are many rural communities which has no electricity or they are so far way from the electrical grid that it is not cost effective for them to be connect and the only alternative is to use standby generators or photovoltaics system (PV). 

Noel's Electrical services specializes in Domestic, Commercial and Industrial installation also the installation of PV systems for the home. This blog will show case some of my resent jobs which was done in Trinidad and highlight the various components of a PV system the following parts are as follows : 

1. Solar panels 
2. Electrical wires
3. Main disconnection breakers 
4. Electrical inverters 
5. Combiner box
6. Charge Controller
7. Batteries fuses
8. Lugs 

The image above shows a topical rural house comprising of a kitchen, bath, 3 bed room and a work shop area. This client was approximately 1000 meters form the closest electrical pole.The electrical commission was charging the customer a large sum of money to obtain a electrical connection to the house. The client was able to purchase a generator but that was to loud at night and the unit could not be store in the house due to the noise, a permanent solution was derived the solar system no noise do not require refueling it only need the sun light to fuel this system.

Here in the Caribbean we are bless with this natural resource the solar system is designed with nine solar panels, and each penal came configured to output 24 volts DC at approximately 5 amps per. panel
