Solar Power System Design (10A Day & Night)
1. Daily Power Requirement
- Target: 10A in morning and 10A in evening.
- Voltage: 12V system.
- Power consumption: 10A x 12V = 120W per hour.
- Daily usage: 120W x 24h = 2,880Wh or 2.88kWh per day.
2. Required System Components
1. Solar Panels:
- Needed: 2.88kWh / 5 sun hours = ~576W.
- With 30% margin: 800W to 1000W total.
- Suggestion: 4 panels x 250W.
2. Batteries:
- Night storage: 10A x 12h x 12V = 1,440Wh.
- Suggestion: One 12V - 200Ah battery or two 12V - 100Ah.
3. Charge Controller (MPPT):
- 60A / 24V MPPT.
4. Inverter:
- 1000W / 12V or 24V Pure Sine Wave (if AC needed).
5. DC Breaker Box:
- Includes fuses and circuit breakers.
6. Wires:
- Use 6-10 mm2 cables depending on length.
