Inverter Types
1. Square Wave
2. Modified Sine Wave
3. Pure Sine Wave (SPWM)
Square wave inverters are the cheapest but not suitable for all appliances.
Modified Sine Wave output is also not suitable for certain appliances, particularly those with capacitive
and electromagnetic devices such as: a fridge, microwave oven and most kinds of motors.
Typically modified sine wave inverters work at lower efficiency than pure sine wave inverters.
Mostly SPWM type inverter use in off grid solar system.
Rating of Inverter
The power rating should be equal or more than the total load in watt at any instant.
In our case the maximum load at any instant = A.C. (630 W)+ Refrigerator (530 W) + T.V. (200W) + Fan
(6*80W) + CFL (6*11W) = 2000 W
By taking some margin we can choose a 2000 W inverter.
As our system is 24 V we have to select a 24V DC to 230V/50Hz AC pure sine wave inverter.
Step 6: Mounting the Solar Panel
After designing the solar system, buy all the components with
appropriate rating as per the previous steps.
Now it is time to mount the solar panel. First choose a suitable location
on the roof top, or on the ground, where there is no obstruction of
sunlight.
The tilt of the stand is nearly equal to the latitude angle of our location.
Tilting : To get the most from solar panels, we need to point them in the
direction that captures the maximum sun light, i.e. south if we are in the
northern hemisphere or north if we are in the southern hemisphere.

Pros and cons of off-grid solar system
Pros Cons
No electricity bills We will need a room to store large solar
batteries and a battery bank
No electric rate hikes You must closely monitor energy usage so you
dont run out of power.
We will have access to power when grid-reliant The high costs of setup and maintenance.
customers face power outages, grid outages and
rolling blackouts.
We will reduce our carbon footprint and We dont have access to power if weather,
decrease our dependence on energy through natural disasters or accidents damage or
more efficient use of power. destroy solar panels or solar system.
Solar Power Now a Reality at Jaipur Railway Station

Conclusions
Solar energy is a resource that is not only sustainable for energy consumption, it is indefinitely renewable.
Solar panels also require little maintenance; after installation and optimization they are very reliable due
to the fact that they actively create electricity in just a few millimeters.
Off-grid Solar system energy output is maximized when the panel is directly facing the sun. This means
that panels in a fixed location, such as the building above, will see a reduced energy production when the
sun is not at an optimal angle.
The primary disadvantage of off-grid solar power is that it obviously cannot be created during the night.
