I am new to this forum and learning about solar power and am planning to setup off grid power for my small house I am building that is not tied to the grid (no power to property). It will be heated with a wood stove and using off grid propane cook stove (no power required).
The power draws will be the following...
-18 cubic foot refrigerator (energy star rated)
-16 cubic foot upright deep freezer (energy star rated)
-120v pressure pump for water supply
-30 LED lights @ 9watts each
-a few small kitchen appliances
-washing machine (energy star rated)
I am thinking about the following for components
8@ 48V solar panels (380watt)
8@ 12 AGM batteries
4000/12000w pure sine inverter
MPPT 60amp charge controller
I have a 12000 watt 4 cylinder diesel generator as a back up as well
Are the components going to be enough?
Am I missing components needed for this system?
How do I tie the house breaker panels into an off grid system?
