About this solar installation in Taunton

Open farmland, a large shed, no grid connection. The Taunton system was custom built for it.

The array is 24 Canadian Solar CS6R-440 panels at 440 W, 10.56 kW, on Clenergy tin racking. Solar cabling and isolators suit two strings running into a Victron SmartSolar MPPT RS 450/200. A Victron Quattro 48/15000/200-100/100 inverter charger manages the power, with six Pylontech US5000B 5 kWh LFP batteries on a server rack in a battery cabinet.

A pre-wired off-grid board ties it together, including a 20 m AC cable run to one switchboard. For backup there is a weatherproof petrol generator with 2 wire auto start, hardwired.

Inside the shed, a black cabinet and wall board hold the Victron inverters and the battery rack. The conduit is tidy and the generator stands beside them.
