The water valves are installed in a house plumbing system to restrict the flow of the water either partially or completely. The sizes and designs of the proportional flow control valves differ according to the purpose they are built for. For example, simple faucet valves let the water completely... Read more »
There are many ways to connect your solar system. Some of the connection types only suit a particular type of solar system (grid or off-grid) you planned to use. While some can be used in any type of solar system. Also, there are many ways to carry out the... Read more »
Electric cars are gradually replacing conventional cars that use petrol and diesel, and in the nearest future, conventional cars will no longer be valued. Although electric cars are much more expensive than fuel-powered cars. With electric cars whose batteries can be recharged with solar PV system, you no longer... Read more »
After you have installed your solar components and everything starts working normally, you need to protect your solar systems so that no thunder or lightning can cause damage to any of the solar components, especially the inverter. An effective earthing system must provide a very low resistance path to... Read more »
One of the aspects of solar system installation where proper analysis and planning is needed is the mounting of the solar panels or array. This is because the solar panels collect the solar energy in form of DC which is converted to the appropriate form (usually AC, except for... Read more »
For your solar system to work, you must connect the solar panels, solar batteries and DC loads (if any) to the solar charge controller correctly. A wrong connection can permanently damage the whole system or a section of the system. You also need to know which one to connect... Read more »
For your solar system to work correctly and efficiently, you must connect the batteries and panels rightly. A wrong connection does not only reduce the efficiency of the system, it can also damage some of the fragile solar system components, especially the inverter. For example, your solar system will...

There are different types and brands of solar batteries and panels in the market. Some brands are of better quality and more efficient than others. Also, some types of batteries last longer and can withstand heavy duty and deep cycle. But there are some tips you need to know,... Read more »
There are different inverter technologies available. Each of these inverter technologies has a special case where they are used (grid or off grid). Some of these technologies have more than one use cases, especially the bi-modal and optimized string inverters. In this article, you will learn about the various... Read more »
Solar energy is one of the renewable energy sources that are freely available for harnessing. Here, energy from the sun is captured to create photovoltaic power (PV), mostly in form of direct current (DC). This captured energy from the sun can be used in different ways, such: generation of...
