What is a 400 watt power inverter?
A inverter is what makes you be able to go from dc to AC. Usually a 400 watt inverter goes in a vehicle while a 5000 is typical for homes. If you wanted to use a laptop on electric only in your car... you would plug the inverter into the cig. lighter outlet in the car and your laptop into the inverter. Hope that helps!
How many solar panels to generate 1500kw?
Well it depends on the power efficient of each solar panel and how much light they get. If you got panels that, in normal sunlight put out 100 watts; then for 1,500,000 watts you would need: 15 thousand panels. Now lets say you use two mirrors on each panel; then you would have about three times the light/power in normal light, so 1,500,000 divided by 300: so you would need 5000 panels and 10,000 mirrors.
How many amps does a 5000-watt inverter draw from a 24 volt system?
it draws 210 amps
Voltage frequency inverter dc or ac output?
An inverter changes a d.c. input to an a.c. output. Inverter is a device to change low volt DC to high volt AC 12 Dc to 220 Ac volt So many type of inverter of watts 500 watt 1000 watt 5000 watt
You want to install solar power just to power 12personal computers your problem is how many solar modules of 65watts do you buy to be able to power these pcs you choose an inverter of 2500watts?
40-45 if you all you have is a 2500 W inverter and depending on how efficient those solar modules are. But I wouldn't guarantee that small of a solar system running those 12 PC's. First, how long are you powering these 12 PC's each day and how much electricity do they use? If it's only 6 hours/day, then you're fine. But if you'll leave them on for 12 hours/day, you'll need a bigger system. If they only use 100 Watts each, then 12 hours is okay. But if they use 200 Watts of electricity each, then you'll need a bigger system. If it's 12 hours/day and 200 Watts/ P then you'll be using 28.8 kWh/day (12 PC's * 12 hours/day * 200 W/PC). Secondly, where are these PC's/ solar panels going to be located? I need to know how much the Sun will shine on them (sun hours, or solar hours per day). I'm guessing they'll be in Haiti in which case the Sun gives about 6 hours of sunlight/day. Now, I'm going to divide 28.8 kWh/day by 6 hours/day and say you need a 4.8 kW system, not the 2.5-3 kW system that 2500 W inverter is good for. See a 4.8 kW solar system is going to produce about 80% AC power or 3.8 kW AC. That 2500 W inverter will blow with that much electricity. So, I'm either going to buy two (2) 2500 W inverters, or one (1) 5000 W inverter. And I wouldn't buy 40-45, 65 W modules either - I'm thinking 200 W modules would better suit. For your one 2500 W inverter, you'd only need 12-14, 200 W modules. For a 4.8 kW system, I'd buy 24-28, 200 W modules. 40-45, 65 W modules if you've chosen a 2500 W inverter and expect it to run your 12 PC's. Be very carfeul with these calculations though! Wisconsin receives two hours of sunlight a day, so the number triples. Loss for the inverter and the batteries should also be considered, as well as temp issues. Solar panels do not work as well when warm. You also need to consider the issue of cloudy days. Will these need to run under all circumstances? Wind may also be added. To ensure operation of these systems 25 hours a day in Haiti I came up with 120 panels and 250 for Wisconsin.
How long did your solar system form?
it was made about 5000 million years ago
Will a 2000 watt 12 volt inverter run a danby 5000 btu energy star ac unit?
Unfortunately, you have not specified a model. The only 5000 BTU model I see on Danby's page is the DAC050MUB1GDB.This device is a 115V machine that draws up to 4.8A of current, which totals at 552VA.Even with really poor efficiency, your 2000W inverter should theoretically run this unit. HOWEVER - most motor-driven devices do not work well on poor inverters and may not start up at all! Also, the inverter and/or the device may heat up excessively.It would be best if you could test the device for an hour before making the purchase.You have not provided the model of your inverter, so I cannot help out any further.
Is it better to buy an inverter or a generator if your power requirement is 4000-5000 watts and run air conditioners?
I assume you are speaking about inverters that make Alternating Current out of DC batteries, like those that are frequently used in vehicles, typically for camping or construction Most inverters are smaller than 5000 watts, but if you could get one, for air conditioning you would need a lot of battery storage because I assume you would not just run the air conditioner a few minutes. I would think the generator is the better way
How much does it cost to install a basic solar energy system for my home in Arizona?
It costs about $2000 to $5000 install a basic solar energy system for your home in Arizona. You can find more information at www.srpnet.com/environment/earthwise/solar/
How much would it cost to get a 1975 VW Beetle's car seats and side panels upholstered?
That depends entirely on who you get to do it, with what material, and to what quality level. Could be $500-$5000.
What is 5027 rounded to nearest 1000?
5000
How much will it cost for 5000 kw of solar panel?
Here in the United States, the cost of the panels runs about $3.75 a watt, so the cost would be about $18,750.00 if you are planning on hanging them yourself. Remember that the rating of the panel is not what you will ever actually see from them. A panel is rated at full open circuit voltage and short circuit current, so you will have about 20% less power, in full sunlight, than the rated power. My panels are each 75 watt units. They can produce 56 watts at full sunlight. In Wisconsin, I receive the equavilent sunlight of two hours each day (average). This means my 75 watt panels will give me about 112 watts of power each day when they are new. Panels produce less in warm weather and after a few years in direct sunlight. If you ignore rebate programs, your panels should break even, in most cases in about 25 years, assuming the current price of power.
