MAPPS
Design Steps:
1.
Calculate your Power Requirements
Determine the Watt-hours per day for all of the equipment you
want to power. Consider both continuous and intermittent loads
in a 24-hour period. Average over a week if loads change daily.
Test the actual power draw of the equipment if you can. For example:
1.2 Amps X 12 Volts = 14.4 Watts X 24 hr/day = 346 Watt-hr/Day
2.
Determine your Solar Insolation Zone
Locate your site on the map below.
The map represents average solar energy available in the winter.
Available energy increases incrementally from zones 1 through
5.
3.
Use the Performance Table to Choose your System
The tables below represent the Watt-hours
per day performance of each MAPPS system in the different
solar zones. Choose your system voltage, then look down your
solar zone column for the value that meets or exceeds your
design load Watt-hours. Follow the row to the left for the
corresponding prepackaged MAPPS system that will fully power
your load requirements.
