1. Solar Home System Hardware Description 1.1. The Solar Home System (SHS) is intended to provide the user with a convenient means of supplying power for small electrical loads such as lights, radio/cassette players or TV. typical SHS operates at a rated voltage of 1! Vdc and provides power for fluorescent luminaires, radio/cassette players, small "lac# and white TV or similar low$power appliance for a"out three to five hours a day. dditionally, other types of luminaires, 1! Vdc or lower voltage soc#et outlets or a %&/ & inverter may "e supplied as options. 'ach SHS consists of one or more photovoltaic ((V) modules with an output of 1) *p or more charging a 1!
