Off-Grid Solar Equipment

Received a shipment of solar power equipent, including a
palette with 15 270W solar panels, a palette with a whole
bunch of batteries, and another palette with all the electronics.


Five stacks of Aquion batteries. Each stack weighs 250 pounds
or 118 kilos.

Boxes of electronics, including the inverter
and solar charge controller.

The battery stacks were transported up to the house and placed
in the battery room with the help of Paul, Shane, and Jordan, as well
as our trusted VW Van.

The battery bank in the battery room.
Each stack is 48 V and has a capacity of 2.2 kWh

The GSLC, the box where all the wiring hook-ups
to the outside world are made (solar array, battery bank,
generator input, grid input (if used)).

A diagram showing the wiring.

This is the display unit for monitoring and programming the system,
and connecting to the internet for remote monitoring.
