Over the last year I have built an off grid solar system. This system is capable of powering my entire house and garage. This video is a brief tour and overview of the whole system. If you want to know any further details then check out my previous videos

The array is 4.3kw LG 365 watt solar panels, PV. They are combined using a Midnite Solar combiner box. This goes through conduit to my DIY powerwall. First the solar power goes to a Victron MPPT Charge Controller, 250/100. After that it comes out as high amps, 48 volt DC. The power feeds to my batteries through large bus bars I made myself. The batteries are salvaged, used Chevy Volt lithium batteries, Gen 2. The battery is 18.4 kwh, but I can use about 14.3 kwh from that.

After the batteries the DC power is supplied to an inverter through 4/0 cable and a 250 amp breaker. The inverter is an Aims, 6000 watt model. It inverters the 48 VDC electricity into 120/240 VAC (alternating current) split-phase.

From the inverter I can power my whole house through the generator port and transfer switch. If I don't want to power my house, I can still use the inverter independently.

The system is safely bonded to a ground rod.

Thanks for watching. If you want to know more details please look at my channel. There are tons of videos showing the whole build.
