Homemade 100VA to 1000VA Grid-tie Inverter Circuit
The following concept I have explained a simple yet viable solar grid tie inverter circuit which can be modified appropriately for generating wattage from 100 to 1000 VA and above. What’s a grid tie inverter It’s an inverter system designed to work just like an ordinary inverter using a DC input power with an exception […]
Grid Mains to Generator Changeover Relay Circuit
In this post I have explained a simple configuration which can be used as a automatic changeover circuit for switching AC grid mains to generator mains, during power failures or outages. The explained circuit will effectively switch the connected appliances to the generator mains during power failure however it won’t be able to switch start the generator automatically, […]
Designing a Grid-Tie Inverter Circuit
A grid tie inverter works quite like a conventional inverter, however the power output from such inverter is fed and tied with the AC mains from the utility grid supply. As long as the mains AC supply is present, the inverter contributes its power to the existing grid mains supply, and stops the process when […]
How to Configure a Solar Panel System – Living of the Grid
In thi post I have explained how to connect and integrate readymade solar panel system with our home, without depending on technical personnel or experts. The main gadgets required for implementing this are: a solar panel, a solar controller, battery and an inverter Introduction It’s been there since the earth was born and it is […]
