I am completely new to this forum and solar, but I do have a technical background (computer science) and have been a home owner for a long time. So I have done many home electrical repairs and projects. While I am not an expert I do have some experience with home wiring.
I am working on learning so I can put together my first solar project. I want a solar backup primarily for our well pump, but if possible also our freezers when the power goes out. It would also be awesome to have a system I can expand as time goes on to perhaps cover more if not all of the home electric when the power goes out.
I know I will need mounts, cabling, and other various bits and piece right now I am trying to figure out major components.
My first is question am I missing any major components to a home system?
The second question is planning on 48v so if I wire the panels and batteries in series as groups of 4 and then those groups in parallel will that work with this equipment?
Basically 3 groups of 4 batteries 48v 100AH each and then on parallel battery unit at 48v 300AH then 2 groups of 4 solar panels making 48v at 9.8 Amps 780 watts each in serial making 48v with 19.6 amps and 1560 watts.
The parts I am looking at:
12V 100Ah LiFePO4 Battery x12
UL1741 10KW Solar Off Grid Inverter 110/220Vac Low Frequency DC 48V AC Input 240V AC Output 120V/240V Split Phase x1
ECO-WORTHY 6 String PV Combiner Box(Metal Case) & 63A Circuit Breakers for Solar Panels x 1
Echo worthy Dual Axis Solar Tracker System x1
Echo worthy 195W 12V Monocrystalline Solar Panel x8
Am I missing any primary components? Will these work wired as described above? Thank you in advance.
