Details:

Solar System and power system.

BBC has 16 Kyocera 165 watt solar panels mounted on racks angled to the South. They are controlled by two Outback 48VDC chargers. The chargers are connected to the 48VDC Battery Bank.

There are three, 700 watt wind generators, each with its own charger.

Connecting to the system is a Propane powered Kohler 12kw generator.

The power is distributed by two 4000 watt invertors and feed into the regular 120vac-240vac Power panel.

The basics of the power system operation are; the solar or wind have priority. Anytime that sun or wind is available they charge the battery bank to full charge, if there is no power demand. If there is a power demand they will fill that first. The batteries operate from 48VDC to 56VDC. If the Solar or Wind is not enough to meet demand and the battery voltage drops below 48VDC, the generator will come on automatically and provide the needed power and charge the batteries simultaneously. The Generator will turn off when the batteries are fully charged or the solar panels or wind generators take over.
