Home power system in Alentejo, Portugal

These pictures are from the 100% DIY installation that powers my home in Alentejo, Portugal.

6 330 watt solar panels 3S2P

1 150/60 mppt

2 24/2000 Phoenix inverters

1 200A lfp battery with a jbd bms

1 300A lfp battery with another jbd bms

1 down converter for the 12V stuff

1 CerboGX

1 24v 16A charger to emergency charging with a petrol generator, used it once in 2 years :slight_smile:

My idea is to combine the output of the inverters. Waiting to bring a windows pc here so I can setup the parallel configuration and update the firmwares…

Up until now we´ve been living with just 1600w from one inverter. Toaster, 12.000btu AC, coffee machine all possible, just have to be careful not to put too much load on the inverter.

The cabinet is made from steel tube and plywood, the 200A battery is behind the acrylic glass, later on I had to add the second battery, the one in the wooden crate.

Ventilation it´s important here so I had to put these fans circulating air to cool the mppt, when both invertes come online I may have to space them a bit, lets see.

I wanted something I could move if needed thus the coice for this kind of cabinet.

Hope you guys enjoy watching this build.
