Power Inverters For Solar Power Systems
The purpose of this article is to explain the role of a solar power inverter in the home solar system, along with some of the differences between particular inverters, and solutions to common problems associated with them.
In order to provide electricity to the home, most home solar systems work by a sequence in which solar panels charge batteries, with the batteries then providing the electricity to the home. Solar panels do not produce power in the dark, so this setup ensures that power is still available even when the sun isn’t out. The electricity provided by both solar panels and batteries is of the Direct Current (DC) type. This has to be converted to Alternating Current (AC), which is used by appliances in the home. The inverter handles this part of the job, converting DC electricity to AC.
Currently, there are both Modified Sine Wave (MSW) and True Sine Wave (TSW) inverters on the market. MSW inverters are the more bare-bones of the two, as they simply convert DC electricity into rough, 120v 60 cycle AC. Some types of appliances are incompatible with MSW inverters. For example, audio equipment may produce an irritating hum when used with MSW inverters. TSW inverters don’t suffer from these difficulties, and so they are generally the best option for homeowners.
Inverters are quite simple to maintain. The inverter should be close to the batteries, without actually being in the same box. The wire connecting the batteries to the inverter needs to be of sufficient size. The necessary size will probably be given in the inverter manual. All wires to and from the inverter will need a fuse. Make sure that the inverter isn’t in an area where it will be exposed to wetness or extreme temperatures.
In terms of common issues, there are just a couple which are known to occur with solar power inverters. The first issue is RF interference. All inverters give off a certain amount of radio noise while working. The simplest way to deal with this issue is to place any receiver as far away from the inverter as possible. Battery powered radios won’t have problems with this interference though, and the batteries can be recharged when necessary with the solar power system.
The other issue relates to phantom loads. This refers to the electricity that is drawn by certain electronic devices, including many new TVs, while they’re turned off. Since they’re always using power, these devices prevent inverters from going to sleep. The inverters themselves, therefore, are forced to use more electricity than they really should. If you’re able to connect the devices responsible for the phantom loads to a power strip with an on/off switch, you can address this problem effectively. The inverter should be able to enter sleep mode when the power strip is turned off, as the connected devices will no longer be able to draw power.
