Documentation of the Brmlab fotovoltaic instalation:

Parts:

• Inverter: GWL/POWER Gridfree Ac Inverter With Limiter 1Kw Sun-1000Gh (45-90V)
• Panels: ELERIX Solar Panel Poly 285Wp 60 Cells, (Esp285 - Pack 4 Pcs)
• Cables, connectors, etc

Current goal was to lower down the lab power consumption (at cheapest possible price). The current system does NOT work as the island system. We have no batteries, and in case of power outage, the fotovoltaic panels does not provide electricity.

The used inverter works only on one a single AC phase. Therefore only BLUE power plugs in the lab are using a solar energy. All devices with permanent power consumption should be plugged into to blue power plugs.

The panel together could produce up to 4×280 = 1120 Wats, the invertor is limited only to 1000W max. However this should be OK, as the panels are not in ideal orientation (cca 45 degrees instead of optimal 30-35), and the is also some power loss on the cables to the roof.
