good day house please how does it work solar and grid power when both are on which charges the battery at the time? or do I have to be switching when grid (nepa) light comes on |

Hello everyone, I'm in a fix here and I need your inputs. There's a 192v UPS but power supply is very terrible and I plan to install solar panels but I'm in a fix on what to do of the following options: (1) Connect the panels and charge controllers to charge the batteries directly ie by connecting the charge controller to the batteries which then supplies power to the UPS for use. And is it advisable for the UPS to simultaneously charge the system anytime there's ac power supply in the form of NEPA or when generator is on during the day? OR (2) To get an inverter and connect to the charge controller and supply the house; without batteries (all appliances are plugged to the US except lights), don't wanna get another set of batteries because the UPS battery bank is enough to provide all the needed power. The UPS is 6kva and has 192v back up of 26ah batteries- 16 pieces- (16*12v = 192v) all connected in series. If recommending to get an inverter, what rating will adequately power the 6kva inverter and charge the batteries? The proposed solar array is 1000w. Are there charge controllers capable of delivering 192v to batteries in Nigeria, how much do they cost? I'll appreciate any replies and if anyone can propose another system configuration it will be given due consideration. |

Lanjonath:What of price of an MPPT? I've come to realize the 192v charge controller isn't usable as the batteries are 26ah, meanwhile smallest charging current for that voltage rating I saw is 30a. |

Re: Thread For Solar System/Electricity Owners in Nigeria. by Lanjonath(m): 9:58pm On Jun 18, 2016 |
Well depending on the current rating, but for 30Amps it goes for N100K and for higher current ratings, it goes up to N155K for 60Amps timifakay: 1 Like |

My Solar power setup. Powered by 4 x 250W Mono panels A 30A Charge controller 4 x 200Ah Batteries A 3.5KVA Pure sine wave inverter. Got all the materials online from KONGA.com, did installation myself and been running for sometime now. Cant remember the last time i turn on my generator. 2 Likes

That charge controller is too small for your setup as the maximum power it can handle is 780w. You'll be loosing 220w during peak sunlight. You need 40a controller. Decent setup BTW. Pretty neat. emytech: 1 Like |
Re: Thread For Solar System/Electricity Owners in Nigeria. by emytech: 8:51am On Jun 19, 2016 |
Nice Remark, that was looked into during the installation, as at now (Rainy cloudy day) there is no way you will harvest the 1000W from the Array. An upgrade is planned for November when additional 4 x 250W panels will be installed alongside a 60A MPPT Charge controller. 1 Like |

What are those boxes by the trunking? What are the loads you connected or better still what's your average loading in wattage? How did you connect your panels 2*2? Do you have the remote meter for d controller or you plan to do PC monitoring? See my system below. emytech: 1 Like

DMerciful: The boxes are: 1. PV Array Breakers 2. DC Breakers for CC output to batteries 3. AC Isolator (Breakers for load distribution) For now all Lightning load (LED Bulbs), All Ceiling fans within d house(only turned on when needed), All TVs and Decorders, Home computing, video game, a refrigerator(Timer installed to operate during the day 10am to 3pm) are all connected. Average loading- Peak bw 750 to 900W Panels are connected 2-Series, 2-Parallel. Planned using PC monitoring, but yet to get the RS485 to USB cable (software already installed on my PC). Nice system you got, but do you really need a CHANGE-OVER SWITCH? 1 Like |
