Common Questions

What can this system power?

This 5kW system is designed to power small to medium household or office appliances, including LED lighting, televisions, radios, computers, printers, and refrigerators. The actual load capacity will vary based on appliance power consumption, usage patterns, and seasonal solar availability.

Is this system expandable?

While this kit is a complete solution, individual components like solar panels or batteries may be expandable depending on the specific model's capabilities and system design. It is recommended to consult with a qualified solar installer or Solarika for advice on system expansion to ensure compatibility and optimal performance.

What maintenance is required?

Regular maintenance typically involves keeping solar panels clean from dirt and debris to maximise efficiency. Periodic checks of cable connections and battery health are also advisable. The lithium battery's integrated BMS helps manage its health automatically.

How does the hybrid inverter function?

The Iconica hybrid inverter intelligently combines three functions: a pure sine wave inverter to convert DC battery power to AC for appliances, an MPPT solar charge controller to efficiently charge the battery from solar panels, and a smart AC battery charger to charge the battery from a generator or mains supply when available.
