Expert Advice for System Longevity

Before purchasing a 1kVA solar backup system, it’s essential to understand the difference between Power and Energy to prevent system failure and ensure optimal performance. This applies to popular inverter brands in Zimbabwe, including Must, Hanchu, Growatt, Felicity, Primax, and Growtech. Knowing how your system’s capacity matches your appliances will help you choose the right battery and inverter combination for uninterrupted power during load shedding or off-grid use.

The Inverter (kW): A 1kVA inverter typically supports a 1000W maximum load. If you plug in a 2000W iron, the system will instantly shut down to protect the internal circuitry. Always keep your simultaneous load below 800W for safety.

The Battery (Ah): Battery capacity determines how long you can run your devices. A 100Ah 12V lithium battery paired with this system provides approximately 1.2kWh of energy, enough to keep your essentials (Lights, TV, WiFi) running for 4-6 hours during standard outages.
