Small Solar Power Systems
The example solar electric systems listed below were primarily designed for remote
cabins, boats or similar off-grid uses. For a solar or
wind powered electric system specifically made for your
needs don't hesitate to drop us an e-mail. We will work with your contractor or architect to develop specifications for your specific needs.
We use only the best quality UL® listed equipment. All power
sources and circuits are equipped with fuses, breakers,
or disconnects to help insure safety and reliability.
Always follow your local building and NEC codes and the
advice of your city/County
electrical inspector.
To decide on which system
is right for you, you'll need to determine what
your power requirements are (see the Calculators
page below) and what the average Full
Sun Hours
are (full sun hours are
equivalent to kW/hrs/meter² on the maps) for your geographic location-Click on the maps link below...

The systems listed here are simple
basic systems but can be expanded upon at any
time
. To estimate your power needs follow the links below to calculators.
A system can be custom designed to meet any energy need. For help email us.
Multiply your area's average full sun hours by the
systems rated output to find your average watt hours of electricity you will generate per
average day.
Like: 106 watts (Rated output) X 4.5 hours (full sun
hours/day) = 477 watt hours (per day average before adjusting for system losses).

Designed to run a few lights or other small DC equipment these
packages come with all the major components for installation-modules, mounting racks, interconnects,
batteries, controls, and fuse panel.
*Check local building and NEC codes for any additional system
requirements for your area.
There is
great care taken in the design of our pre-packaged solar
electric power systems.There is no room to compromise when comfort and
safety are concerned, only a qualified contractor should install electrical generation equipment. Whether you are qualified to tackle the installation yourself or have your
contractor and electrician do it for you, it is as simple as one, two, three. If questions arise
you can always contact us for help.
The example systems above include a relatively small battery bank. A
battery bank in a stand alone system without a fossil fuel back-up generator ideally should have the capacity to meet your load
requirements for as many days as you can expect overcast days in a
row plus at least a 20% reserve to prevent battery damage from over
discharge.
We also make many other custom solar
kits using Sharp , Evergreen, Kyocera, BP and Shell
brands of solar panels. Let us design a system
for you!
