Wanda Posted February 17, 2021 Posted February 17, 2021 Whats the difference in terms of performance between the following two off-grid systems 3kva system with 4x365w Solar panels , 3kva inverter and a 24v 200ah lithium ion battery And 5kva system with 4x365w panels 5kva inverter and a 48v 100AH lithium ion battery assuming assuming the loads are the same.

Achmat Posted February 17, 2021 Posted February 17, 2021 Battery cable on the 24v system would be thicker and thus more costly. 50mm² cables for a 24v system with those specification. Quote
Paul Greeff Posted February 17, 2021 Posted February 17, 2021 The only difference you will see on the output is that the 3 kVA systems can power fewer devices than the 5 kVA system. The wiring for the 24V system with the same storage capacity will be a lot thicker and cumbersome to work with. I'd go with the 48V system, especially when you're talking few kW and not just a few hundred watts. Quote
