Illustration Photo: Two 130W peak PV Panels convert solar energy into electric power which is stored in the battery via a charge controller. An inverter is used to convert the 12V DC supply from battery into 230V AC which is passed through the timer switch. This is a programmable switch which automatically starts and shuts off power supply to customers at pre-set times. The distribution panel helps to split the grid into 4 circuits that cover household clusters located around the powerhouse reducing risk to the system while increasing overall efficiency of the grid. Power limiters are used to regulate the flow of power through each of the distribution circuits, its function is to temporarily cut-off power supply in case of any misuse or over-drawing of energy which could harm the system.
