Summary of the Video: "معلومات يجب ان تعرفها قبل شراء منظومة الطاقة الشمسية"

This video provides essential information and practical advice for anyone planning to buy a solar energy system, focusing particularly on issues related to inverters and solar charge controllers (regulators). The speaker explains common problems encountered when the system’s voltage and current specifications are not properly matched, and offers guidance on how to select the right number of solar panels and compatible equipment to avoid malfunctions.

Main Ideas and Concepts

• Common Problem: Open Regulator Issue
  • Many users face problems because the inverter or solar charge controller requires a specific voltage (e.g., 240V DC or 270V DC) to operate correctly.
  • If the voltage from the solar panels is lower than required, the inverter may malfunction or draw power from the battery instead of charging it.
• Types of inverters
  • Old Model inverters:
    • Require a minimum voltage (e.g., 240V).
    • If voltage is below this threshold, they draw power from the battery to compensate, leading to battery drain.
  • New Model inverters:
    • Instead of drawing from the battery, they use the amperage from the solar panels to boost voltage.
    • They convert some panel current to maintain nominal voltage without battery drain.
• voltage and amperage Considerations
  • solar panels have a nominal voltage and amperage rating; these must be matched to the inverter’s requirements.
  • voltage drops after load must be accounted for when calculating how many panels to connect in series.
  • For example, if each panel outputs about 44V, and the inverter needs 450V, about 10 panels in series are needed.
  • Over-voltage (exceeding the inverter’s maximum voltage, e.g., 450V) can damage the inverter or voltage+regulator+for+solar+panels&tag=dtdgstoreid-21">solar regulator.
  • Under-voltage leads to system malfunction or failure to operate.
• Calculating Number of Panels
  • To achieve the required voltage, calculate by dividing the inverter’s needed voltage by the panel voltage after load.
  • Consider temperature and sunlight intensity, as these affect voltage and amperage output.
  • The amperage output of panels varies; it’s important to ensure the total amperage meets the inverter’s requirements.
  • It’s better to have a slightly higher voltage than required to avoid problems during low sunlight conditions.
• Quality and Condition of Panels
  • Panel age, condition, and cleanliness affect voltage and amperage output.
  • Real measurements may differ from manufacturer specifications.
  • Regular monitoring and testing of panels are recommended.

Detailed Methodology / Instructions

1. Before Buying an inverter or Panels:
   • Check the inverter’s required nominal DC voltage (e.g., 240V, 270V, 320V).
   • Identify the voltage+regulator+for+solar+panels&tag=dtdgstoreid-21">solar regulator’s voltage range (e.g., 120V to 450V).
   • Determine the voltage and amperage ratings of the solar panels you plan to buy.
2. Calculating Panels in Series:
   • Measure or find the panel’s voltage after load (e.g., 42V).
   • Divide the inverter’s required voltage by the panel’s voltage after load to find the number of panels needed in series.
     • Example: 240V / 42V ≈ 6 panels in series.
   • Ensure the total voltage does not exceed the inverter’s maximum voltage (e.g., 450V).
3. Considering amperage:
   • Check the amperage rating of each panel (e.g., 10-17 amps).
   • Confirm that the total amperage from panels meets or exceeds the inverter’s input requirements.
   • Avoid buying too many panels unnecessarily; focus on meeting voltage and amperage needs efficiently.
4. Avoiding Problems:
   • Ensure panels are clean and in good condition to maintain rated output.
   • Monitor voltage especially during sunrise and sunset when voltage may be low.
   • Use newer inverter models if possible, as they better handle voltage fluctuations without draining batteries.
5. Safety Precautions:
   • Do not exceed the inverter’s maximum voltage limit to avoid damage.
   • Be aware that low voltage from panels can cause the inverter to malfunction or draw battery power.
