Hello Solar Energy Enthusiast!
My goal is to make sure you will enjoy this course! Since you are reading this, it means you are looking for a reliable source of information related to grid-tied solar energy systems: Through this course, I will share with you my extensive knowledge and experience.
And lucky you! Through this course you will get a condensed version of all the fundamentals you need to be aware of. I have included several short multiple choice questions, through which you can self-test whether you have absorbed the knowledge adequately throughout the course. And to spice it up, we will also take numerous virtual excursions to websites of manufacturers of different components of your solar system. Through this approach, we make sure that we bridge the following gaps:
-We make sure that you get the relevant and unbiased knowledge from an experienced professional
- You have the possibility to test your knowledge and freely browse through the content of the course as per your preferences
- We will bridge the gap between theory & real-life examples by reviewing numerous product options which you might come across as you will be shopping for your system components
I am glad that you are interested in this course: It will teach you all the relevant knowledge, without any 'fluff', and includes several brief multiple-choice questions to test your knowledge.
I have created this course for you, fueled by my academic background in Renewable Energy Engineering and extensive field experience in the design and installation of PV Energy Systems.
You are getting a very good deal: I will summarize for you all that I have learned over the years, and all you have to do is push the button and start soaking up the information. Lucky you!
Take action now! Educate yourself by staring this course, so that you will be able to make well-informed decisions for your system. TIP: Udemy offers a very generous refund policy in case the course content turns out different than expected.
See you soon!
Jesse

I live in an off- grid cottage in Lesotho. Your videos have enabled me to no longer buy petrol for my generator and reduced my propane consumption by over half. My next plan is to install another panel and buy a 350W slow cooker to further reduce my need for gas. We are blessed with plenty of sunshine here and with your advice one can live quite comfortably. Thanks again Jesse.

Such wonderful news Emelia! It is always nice to hear from you. I couldn't be happier hearing how the videos have reduced your fuel consumption, these kind of outcomes are exactly one of the reasons why I am sharing the video content on RU-vid. Thank you for letting me know! Jesse

There are small hot pots and small rice cookers that use a lot less power than traditional portable stove units. Many of them are inexpensive.

i believe the ground wire going back to the panel is the way a fault is cleared due to the ground and neutral being bonded. The ground rod wouldn't carry enough current to clear a fault on its own. I have seen people hook 120v from a panel straight to ground rod that was not bonded and it didn't trip the breaker. It just drew about 5 amps or so and created a dangerous voltage gradient in the earth.

@o0DJANIMATE0o
@o0DJANIMATE0o Год назад
i second this, the ground rod in residential applications is exclusively used for lightning strikes and NOT for a ground fault path via normal ground faults, the grounded/neutral conductor is the actual ground fault path and NOT the earth rod
@koborkutya7338
@koborkutya7338 Год назад
@@o0DJANIMATE0o where I live lightning protection has a dedicated earthing that is NOT the same as a AC grid ground rod, it even has a minimum distance from that and electrical standard mandates a ground rod connected to grid ground wire before grid electricity is allowed to be connected, they measure resistances btw neutral and ground and also check ground resistance of the rod.
@RR42636
@RR42636 Год назад
this is very true. Hope everyone watching this video sees this, an earth path only is not the low resistance path that would cause a breaker to trip.

Thank you Jesse. Do you need to ground every single panel? What aboit the mounting structure ? All the panels are connected to a rail, is it acceptable to ground the rails only?
@noahriding5780
@noahriding5780 8 месяцев назад
when you sever power from the panels on your roof going into a charge controller, is the solar panel still getting wear and tear?

The subject is compartmentalized to which level of electricity we are into and where the borders and regulations go. You can ignore most of it in your car as an example.

Ok, this might be a strange question, we recently discovered that we are feeling tingles in our home when neighbors solar is on, mostly in feet and legs. Confirmed when neighbor turns off solar the tingles go away. We don't have to touch anything in our home to feel tingling. Its felt all day from when the solar comes on and stops when the solar goes off. We have power company coming to check it out as our electrician has confirmed its not a problem within out home. Neighbors deny any issues on their side. Any idea what's going on in this situation and how to solve? thanks

:) Example with TV is for AC electricity, where ground is part of the circuit, but why you need grounding for solar which is DC ?

@petertomas3665 2 года назад
I love your videos, they are so helpfull ! Could you tell me pls if i can ground my DC/AC inverter of my solar system to the grounding of the main 220 AC ground of the house in the circuit breakers box since there is a ground there too for the 220V AC or do i need to make a new seperate ground for my inverter ? Thank you.

@MCMole 2 года назад
You can use the ground in your main panel. As long as you are sure the ground rod going to earth is there.

What would happen if lightning strikes a lamp post, tree etc. nearby (I believe lightning can reach 1million volt) Will lightning not use my ground rod as a conductor and enter my television through the ground? I am not clued up about lightning. Your thoughts?
@zzz_ttt_0091
@zzz_ttt_0091 2 месяца назад
when TV has some issues the current flows back to the source (as you also stated), and not to the earth! grounding wont save you from electric shock.

I'm off grid and my pannels are in series to make 300 volt.. both my inverters are earthed and i have the neutral connected to earth in the A/C circuit breaker box but my solar panels aren't earthed, does that mean i should have an earth wire on my panels for safety reasons?
