Will your solar work during a power cut?
Only if your system is designed for backup power. Standard grid-connected solar shuts down during an outage to prevent electricity feeding back onto the grid and protect crews working on the lines.
🏡 How does a changeover switch help?
It safely separates your backed-up circuits from the grid before connecting them to your backup supply. Manual changeover. Practical backup
🔋 What else do you need?
A compatible backup-capable inverter, battery storage and correctly installed electrical arrangements. A changeover switch or battery alone doesn’t guarantee backup power.
💡 The benefit?
You can keep selected essentials - such as lights, your fridge and Wi-Fi - running within your system’s capacity. How long they run depends on battery charge, available solar and how much electricity you use.
