  2. 3KW Solar Array panel sizing.

    Alan W replied to Great Whit3's topic in Solar Power
    Good afternoon. I am also considering installing 4 x 575 watt jinko panels, with Kodak 3kw inverter/MPPT and 25v Hubble lithium battery. I'm currently only using 4 units of electricity each day (on average), because I have a gas geyser, and gas hob. I also have a 24v lead acid inverter connected to the system. Again, I am told by some installers that the 4 x 575 panels, 3kw inverter, and 25v lithium, should work well. Others are saying the 3kw inverter will not cope with the 4 x 575 panels. Others are saying just go for 475w panels. Any advice. My main aim is to keep the fridge going, garage doors working, and some basic appliances, during lengthy power failures. My existing 24v inverter with lead acid batteries is lasting well during load shedding. only connected to lights and plugs in the lounge and bedrooms. What do you think? Alan. Kempton Park
