Solar Panels For Homes

Current and Voltage (How-To)?

On my solar charge controller, i got the following reading for, let’s say at 9.30am

In a dc system such as this, Power = V x I (note this formula does not apply to ac power systems).

So your panels are producing 8.71A x 8.74V = 76.13W

The load is consuming 4.32A x 13.75V = 59.4W

The battery is absorbing 0.83A x 13.76V = 11.42W

Total (Load + Battery) = 70.8W so it can be assumed that the remainder is being lost somewhere.
