Project Title:
Residential Photovoltaic Power System
Project Description (provided by group):
The P.V. System must perform the following functions:
- Using a photovoltaic solar panel sized to meet a specified load, shall produce DC power to inverter/batteries.
- The DC power must be converted to AC using an inverter.
- The System must automatically switch to backup power upon loss of power from the grid.
- The system must feed power to the load on demand and to the grid when the P.V. panel is producing more power than the demand of the load.
