Installing an off-grid solar power system typically involves the following steps:
Site Selection and Survey
Choose a place with plenty of light, flat terrain and no shades (e.g. trees, buildings, etc.) as the installation site.
Site survey of the installation site to assess local climate, light conditions, and expected electrical load to determine the size and number of components of the system.
Preparation for construction
Prepare the necessary materials and equipment, such as solar panels, brackets, inverters, energy storage batteries (such as lithium batteries), cables, installation tools, etc.
Set up temporary warehouses to store these materials and equipment.
Mounting Bracket
According to the results of the site survey and the size of the solar panel, install the appropriate bracket.
The material of the bracket should be made of corrosion-resistant and wind-resistant materials, such as aluminum alloy or stainless steel.
Laying solar panels
Install the solar panels neatly on the bracket and make sure the orientation and inclination of the panels allow for maximum sunlight reception.
Connect the cables between the solar panels, making sure the connection is secure and waterproof.
Install the controller, inverter and energy storage battery
Choose the right controller, inverter, and energy storage battery according to the size of the system.
Controllers and inverters are generally installed in a dry, ventilated place, away from water sources and humid environments.
Energy storage batteries should be installed in a cool, ventilated place to ensure their longevity.
Electrical Connections
Electrically connect the solar panels, controllers, inverters, and energy storage batteries.
Follow the circuit diagram for wiring, make sure the circuit is correct, and pay attention to the connection of the positive and negative poles.
System commissioning and acceptance
After the installation is completed, the system is commissioned to ensure that the individual components are functioning properly.
After commissioning, the acceptance is carried out, whether the system meets the design requirements, and the relevant data is recorded.
Monitoring & Maintenance
After the installation is completed, the system is regularly monitored and maintained to ensure the long-term stable operation of the system.
Depending on the actual situation, replace the damaged components or carry out the necessary repairs in a timely manner.
Please note that safety regulations should be strictly followed during installation and operated by professionals. In addition, the exact installation steps may vary depending on the system size, configuration, and regional differences, so it is advisable to consult with a professional solar power system supplier or installation service provider before the actual installation.
