The brief

Storage designed for a real power cut

A battery on its own does not keep a house running when the grid fails. Jan’s system includes the switch box that separates the house from the grid, so the batteries can keep supplying it.

“On Monday 2 March at 9.00 José was at the door with 2 colleagues and his company van. 16 panels were fitted with a […] battery and accessories, and a special switch box that makes sure the power keeps coming from the batteries during a power cut. Very important. Without this switch you have nothing during a power cut! Ten hours later the whole installation was perfectly fitted, and everything worked well with the app. Even my brother-in-law was very enthusiastic, and as a result the same package is being fitted in Orihuela Costa at the end of March. We are very satisfied with this addition to our home. José and Joelle, I shout it from the solar roof: you are top!”
