In addition, the battery was tested to power a RÖDER milling machine and an industrial vacuum, when cutting roof tiles. The PHALKE ladder lift that Axel uses, drains 1000W, lifting two panels, 36 kg at a time. The battery system weighs only 15 kilograms, so it can be placed freely anywhere in the proximity of the appliances in use. From the start it became evident: inconvenience for the house owners was minimized and some worktime was saved when puling the cables weren’t necessary.īest way of lifting solar panels onto roof

#Instagrid pro portable
This time, Axel did things differently and tested powering his equipment with the instagrid portable power supply. Typically, installation takes two entire working days, with cables being pulled in-and-out of the house. 50-meter cable drums in the back of the car ensure, that the access to a power socket is always obtained. Typically, the installation crew would have to access the electric sockets inside the house, always agreeing with the house owner on the day and time of the installation. To lift the solar modules onto the roof, Axel uses a ladder lift, which obviously needs electricity to operate. Being in the forefront of smart grids and new technologies, Solmey jumped on our offer to test our device and shared some of their best practices with instagrid. The company installs 2000 photovoltaic modules per year, both grid-connected PV systems as well as standalone and hybrid systems. Solmey GmbH has been installing Solar Panels since 2011, accumulating know-how in this field for years. Save time and make installation work more efficient We tested the instagrid portable power system and discussed the best working practices with Axel Noack, head of technology at Solmey. Solmey is the expert on the latest innovative technology available such as battery storage systems, LED lighting, smart home solutions and EV charging stations. This family owned business is helping house owners in the Southern Germany to convert their electricity needs to solar power. To see how the installation is done, we spent a day with Solmey GmbH.

Solar power installations are becoming more popular and increasing in numbers, as many households these days are interested in having solar power for their homes. To test if there indeed is another way to access power for household installations, we asked true professionals for help. Yet, you may wonder if the availability of electricity could be arranged in some other way? Lifting solar panels onto roof You are used to pulling extension cords and reserving time for small talk with clients and petting their dogs. You make sure that the house owner is at home, opening the door and showing you where to find the electric sockets… only to find that they are not very conveniently located. Do you work with household installations? Then you might have encountered the challenge of powering your equipment at the client’s place.
