This is a complete, easy and ready to install, solar controller with battery inverters. These cabinets were designed and built by DC Solar.  If you use the cabinet as-is there are only 2 connections required to have a functioning system (battery connection and solar panel connection).  You can also take it apart and assemble it wherever and in any configuration that you like. This setup will generate power even when there is no connection to the power grid. There are two slight variations of the cabinets that house the equipment.  One has black handles and the other has silver handles. There is no difference in the configuration of the main components.

Engineering and Design Advice:

I am an experienced electrical engineer.  I am happy to give you advice on your installation. One of the best ways to use the SMA Sunny Islands is to add an SMA Sunny Boy with it.  You can add up to 3,000 watts of pv panels to this cabinet. If you add a Sunny Boy to the system you can add anywhere from 4,000 to 12,000 additional PV watts and they will work seamlessly with the Sunny Islands. Once you buy this cabinet I am happy to provide you will all of the info that you will need.

Assurance:

I have sold over 45 of these complete cabinets in the last two years and shipped them all over the country. You can buy with confidence.
