Looks like your question is answered but something else to look out for-
this is pretty straight-forward for batteryless systems but for
battery-backup and a line-side tie, you're adding a big load to the
service conductors for battery charging and pass-through current to
critical loads. If you
Although we have specified and included Kohler RES models in all our off-grid
and battery based solar projects for over 15 years, we have seen a real decline
in the suitability of the Kohler line in the past few years for use in
solar/battery/generator applications. First they killed off the 1
We have a very good nationa-size client wanting to find a solar installer or
commercial electrical contractor with solar experience for two projects in the
Dover Delaware and New Jersey areas. One project is in the Mega-watt range and
the other is much smaller. This is a good client of ours, b
Hi All,
I think it is clear that a fused disconnect is required next to the service
tap. But I have one other thought.
When we install line side taps we always run the wire between the disconnect
and service panel in rigid conduit and bond both sides of the conduit just like
we would do with s
Developing test questions is an on-going process as knowledge, understanding,
and language evolve.
The PV industry started using 32 to 38 silicon single crystal solar cells in
series to charge 12-volt batteries. At first, 33-cell modules were used without
charge controllers for smaller PV syste

Although the 48 volt output from the Cummings small gen is unusual, I like the
Propane option, and perhaps it is suitable. It is small, 5 kW but also
batteries last longer on a slow charge. It also has a controlled output to do
battery charging.
