February 14, 20233 yr Hi I am helping a friend install a system at his new house. The DB board is in a cupboard in the kitchen. So we are debating where to put the inverter and battery. One option is to just install the Inverter /battery back to back with the wall the DB is in. But this will then be outside. Based on some forum members’ experience, is this advisable? And what enclosures did you guys use? Thanks in advance.
February 14, 20233 yr It would depend on the inverter type. I had my Sunsynk inverter moved outside due to noise, with the battery remaining inside. The inverter is IP65 rated, so I don't have an enclosure outside.
February 15, 20233 yr I built this for about R3200 materials only. Treated timber frame and 10mm Fibrecrete boards.

February 16, 20233 yr No plans, it's a "temporary structure" -- a garden shed --! You can buy similar sheds from various outlets made from the same materials but will cost you 5 times more. They even build housing this way. Here's a pic during construction. Once I do the solar installation I will send more.
