Here are some facts about solar power for residential homes.
• Photovoltaic cells are the main component of solar panels. These cells capture energy from the sun, which will later be transformed into electricity for your home. You can order them on the internet in bulk. Most sellers offer a package of 36 3x3 cells for less than 0. Sometimes you can find damaged ones on sale. Some damaged solar cells work just fine, and only have small flaws.
• Tools that you will need for creating solar power for residential homes include sheet copper, shears, a wide mouth jar, electric drill, sandpaper, AC power inverter, alligator clips, soldering gun, wire cutters, plexiglass, caulk, volt meter, and protection glasses.
• You'll need to install a good deep cycle battery that can withstand constant recharging. A battery is required as a solar panel component because it keeps all of the stored energy. Since sunlight isn't available 24/7, some energy needs to be stored so that your home can receive electricity on cloudy days and during the night.
• Everything should be attached securely. The solar panels need to be able to withstand all weather conditions, including storms. Some people find it efficient to seal the solar cells to plexiglass with silicone caulk. Just make sure that you use the right amount of caulk - you don't want it bubbling in front of the cells. Leave a small amount of space between each cell. They need a little "breathing" room in order to function properly.
• You might want to get some practice building small panels before you build large ones. You'll just need six cells or so to create a small panel that provides electricity to objects such as a CD player. Take it outside to the part of your property which receives the most amount of sunlight. If the CD player works, then you'll know that you built the panel right! Apply the same techniques to a much larger panel so that you can get electricity for your entire home.
• Solar power for residential home is most effective when no shadows fall on the panels between 9 am to 4 pm. It's important that you find a good location for installation. Shade can actually damage the cells, so you need to be careful with where you put them. Some people install solar panels on their roofs. If you don't have a lot of property, this might be your best option. If you live in the Northern Hemisphere, install the panels so that they are facing south. If you live in the Southern Hemisphere, install them so that they face north.
