[QUOTE="ATS perplexed, post: 490689, member: 32190"] Hi everyone, I need advice on some equipment prior to hiring a electrician to do the work. I've been 65 years a plumber (yes I'm almost 80 ) and obviously picked up limited knowledge about wiring. Some years ago I installed a 'Stand alone PV system' in a new house I built in the sticks. It consisted of 15 X 185 watt solar panels, 10 X 12 volt batteries (joined together to make 5 X 24 volt batteries) ,5 charge controllers and a 5 Kw inverter. The batteries have long since been not fit for purpose and I have now been connected to the grid. I assume that the panels and charge controllers and the inverter are still usable. and I want to know if I can connect the old solar array to my electrical installation using an automatic transfer switch and my existing equipment ( charge controllers and inverter). Regards, Perplexed. [/QUOTE]
