Learn how to design, size and wire your own Photovoltaic Electrical Generation system, become independant from the grid
It is possible! You can sustainably, reliably and consistently power your home or business’s electrical loads by utilising the abundant energy available from the Sun!
What you’ll learn
- Grasp the basics of electricity: (Voltage, Amperage, Resistance, Power), Basic Circuits: Series vs Parallel, Earthing, Single and Three Phase, Laws of Physics.
- How Photovoltaic Electrical Generator (P.V.E.G) Systems are arranged: Grid-Tied, Off-Grid & Hybrid.
- The benefits of adopting Solar Energy into your life.
- Understand how PV panels work and which electrical characteristics to consider.
- Understand how Inverters work, which specifications to look for how to size appropriately..
- Appropriately select and size PV panel arrays, inverters and battery banks to the required electrical load of your specific project.
- An in depth look at the basic wiring of a PVEG System.

Requirements
It is possible! You can sustainably, reliably and consistently power your home or business’s electrical loads by utilising the abundant energy available from the Sun!
WHY YOU SHOULD TAKE THIS CLASS?
The benefits of adopting such technology into your lives are the following:
- Reduce your carbon footprint
- Decrease your electrical bill by harnessing the free energy available from the sun
- Increase your property’s value of up to 2-3 times the value of your PVEG system
- Worry less about power outages from your national grid utility provide
WHAT YOU WILL LEARN
In this course we dive into the knowledge you’ll need to know in order to design your own P.V.E.G (Photovoltaic Electrical Generator):
- The fundamental laws of physics that electricity follows
- The basics of your homes electrical circuity
- How different PVEG’s are arranged: Off-grid, Grid-tied and Hybrid
- The building blocks of PVEG’s –
- Inverters
- PV panels
- Li-Ion Battery storage
- How to size them appropriately for your specific needs
- A shopping list of all the components, consumables and tools you’ll need
- A basic wiring schematic diagram on how to connect your PVEG system
WHO IS THIS CLASS FOR?
- Home owners and first time buyers
- Electricians
- Property Developers
- Business owners
- Ecoprenuers
By the end on this course, in a three part series, you’ll have gained the knowledge to design your own PVEG. However, it is best recommended that any installations of such technology be guided or conducted by a qualified & professional electrician or engineer.
Enjoy!
May your PVEG projects shine bright into the future!
