ASSESSMENT OF CONSUMPTION
The number of panels to be installed is directly related to your daily consumption in Watt/hour. It is thus necessary to determine this consumption by listing the number of receivers that you would use, according to the below example.
Most of the photovoltaic installations use 12 V or 24 V. We recommend you to limit the use of your solar generator to lighting and if necessary to the operation of low tension audiovisual equipment.
To help you determine your need, use the assessment of consumption.

Indicate if you have high output refrigerators or small household appliances using 220V.
Note: 8 W, 13 W and 18 W fluorescent tubes light as much as 40 W, 60 W and 100 W incandescent lamps.
We suggest you to use 8 W fluorescent light bulbs in bedrooms, bathrooms, and other rooms, and the 13 W and 18 W ones in kitchens, dinning rooms and living rooms.
