Title | Portable Solar Panels For Electricity | ||||
Description | There are a lot of benefits using pv mounting systems. Firstly, it does not produce any waste or pollution whatsoever. It requires very little maintenance because it has no moving parts. It is very cheap to run because all you'll need is sunlight. The only drawback is its efficiency. A solar power system has a low efficiency due to many factors such as smog in the air, the angle of the sun in relative to the solar panel, the quality of the solar cells, solar panel temperature, battery temperate etc. Nonetheless, it does offer a good amount of electricity for free. If you are planning to make your own portable solar panels to generate electricity, you must fulfill some prerequisite requirement. Do you understand how electricity works? Can you read and comprehend a wiring diagram? Can you read and understand the user manual of any electronic gadgets? If you can fulfill all these requirements, making the Do It Yourself (DIY) solar power system would not be a challenge to you. In actual fact, a solar energy setup is quite simple. It has only 4 key components which are the solar panels, charge controller, battery units and power inverter. The rest are smaller supporting parts such as amperage meter, voltage meter, safety cut off fuses, disconnect switch, copper cables and system monitoring unit. The heart of the system, the solar panel will generate an electric current when exposed to sunlight. This is possible because of a special semi-conductive material known as Photovoltaic (PV) cell. A typical solar panel has 36 pieces of PV cells soldered together in series. The panels are arranged into a solar array which is to be connected to the charge controller via 2 copper cables. The charge controller will use the electric current generated by the PV cells to charge a series of battery units. The type of battery most suitable for a domestic solar system is the true deep cycle type. This type of battery is mainly used on electric golf carts. It is very durable, give out a steady flow of electric current and can be discharged to a very low level without damaging its internal plates. Since all batteries can only stored Direct Current (DC), you will use the power inverter to change the DC to Alternate Current (AC). Most household electronic appliances nowadays are designed to run on AC. The final step when build a portable flat roof mounting system for pv is to attach an extension cable from the power inverter with multiple outlets for easy access. |
