Just to share some more pixs of my installations:

10kVA Servo Regulator, 3.5kVA INVERTER & 860AH (2V 430AH GNB Asolyte Batteries in 4 packs of 6 2V batteries each) 24V Battery Bank, 6*230w PSC Solar panel Powering a 3 Bedroom Residence

The panels are just the recent upgrade.

I have read through the forum and noticed that a lot of people want an entry level configuration in to renewable energy.
Here is one of the simple entry level config pictures I've used of recent and derived satisfactory results at low cost:

I'm a regular installer of Prag Servo Regulators as shown in some of my pixs below.

I'm wondering if you are aware that the 220V displayed on the regulator is actually not the output voltage reading (I search this forum and the entire nairaland to find out if this has been mentioned any were but couldn't fine any). It is just a number reading permanently on the LED screen. the output voltage also varies with the input to as low as 180v like in one occasion that public power supply was 164v.

To me, that is deception.
Well that's a personal opinion though.

Before I proceed I'll love to give a very good shout out to Oga Georg and other ogas at the top of this group.

Georg_D, Congratulations on your recent upgrade. I'm sure you are thinking of expanding your power output in future that's why you spent that amount of money on the cascadable version of the Magnum Inverter.

I will love to post more pictures of some of my installations

This is stage 1. The panels and the batteries are going to be 24 pcs each.
The Protection accessories are on the way to Naija.
The construction of the structure that will sit the 24 panels is on going.

The structure will also serve as a car park as shown in the image below

Greetings to this great forum
I have been a silent reader of this forum for a long time. I must say it is an impressive group to be for anyone in renewable energy (or even aspiring to be in) deal.
There are tons of useful informations in here.
One of the reasons I only read n say little is because I do commercial installations.
I've been in renewable energy business for quite a long time and have some experiences and a fair enough technical background on it.
Well, I feel I should start contributing.

rodgers: just wondering. Is it possible to charge my battery with another inverter using the output from the first inverter. That both inverters are connected to same battery bank, while one is supplying, the other is used to recharge

Yest it is possible but you'll gain nothing. Rather you'll be loosing some current.
