This pack contains
Peak power output | 5kW |
Usable battery energy | ~5 Units (kWhr) |
Max instantaneous power from battery only | ~5kW |
For those not overly familiar with electrical power, this system can store 5 Units of electricity in the batteries.
This means that at during a power failure, you could watch a 250W TV for about 20 hours before the batteries went flat (250W x 20 hours = 5000Whrs = 5 Units of electricity)
OR
you could run 40 x 5W LED globes for 25 hours (5W x 40 x 25 hours = 5000Whrs = 5 Units of electricity)
OR
a 2000W kettle for an 2.5 hours straight (2000W * 2.5 hour = 4500Whrs =5 Units of electricity) *Not sure why you would do that but who knows?*
OR
any combination of the above that adds up to 5 Units.
The system will switch from grid power to battery power automatically upon grid failure, and automatically back to grid when power returns. The batteries will then automatically recharge.

Can I add a wind generator to this system?
Hi Pieter, possibly - you would need to check with the wind turbine supplier whether the specs of the turbine will allow integration with the inverters MPPT
With this package in mind can i add solar panels to the system? Which would be sufficient and would you recommend?
Hi Henri, yes you can. You will need a minimum of 4 panels for it to work, and could have as many as 16 panels (depending on panel size).
The number of panels you need will be dependent on your load requirements.
