We are designing a "Mobile Solar Power Center" to power Eco-Events and the like in Southern California. We will have 1,600 Wp of solar panels, 6 kWh of 24 V AGM battery backup and a 1kW / 120 VAC inverter. I am designing the system from scratch, and I wondered if anyone else out there has put together a similar system and was inclined to share notes. When I'm finished I'd be glad to do the same.
One stumbling block I have right now, is to find a DC rated 70A in-line fuse, to put between the battery bank and the input to the inverter. 70A may seem an odd value, but it is the best choice for the surge rating of the inverter I'll be using (Xantrex Prosine 1000). Does anyone have a source for DC-rated in-line fuses? Thanks in advance, -Peter Peter T.
