DIY Home Solar Power Systems
Welcome to the new era of solar power, a place where you can cut your electrical bills to zero! Home solar power systems is capable of supplying power to all household appliances and can be quite substantial. DIY solar power systems can be made in a modular fashion; you install the basic requirement and gradually as the time and the cost permit, carry on adding to it. A DIY solar panel comprises of a variety of materials:
• Wire crimping tools
• A sheet of plywood
• A wire cutter
• Solder, 60/40 or silver
• Soldering iron, or soldering station
• Sheets of glass
• Drill
• Copper wires
• Screwdriver
• Cobalt steel jobbers’ twist drill bit, heavy duty, wire gauge size 26, 3″ L, 1c” L flute
• Machine screw size high-speed steel hand tap taper, 10-24, H3 pitch diameter, 4 flute
• A 7/32 drill bit
• Plastic sheet cutter
• Reamer
• Pliers
• Hacksaw or cutoff saw
The hands-on process of assembling your DIY solar power system is not as complicated as you think. Here are 6 Basic Steps To Build Your DIY Solar Power System:
1. Organize the solar cells in rows on the plywood sheet, with the back of the cells on the plywood and in the configuration suggested in the DIY instructional guide.
2. Holes are required to be drilled in the acrylic or plywood sheet so that the wires connecting the cells can be taken through to the back. Interconnect the cells as per the instructions.
3. Position a backing board on the back of the acrylic or plywood so that the interconnected wires are held in place and sealed.
4. A sheet of glass must be positioned over the top of the solar cells
5. Place a framing piece over this assembly (as this would be done in framing a photograph)
6. Seal the edges of the assembly, and your DIY solar power system is ready.
The assembly procedure described above is the basic process of how to build a solar panel. You can improvise on it in order to make it more durable.
