3 System Overview
The Power Pak is designed to be the central piece in a solar powered energy system. Its flexible design allows
it to be used in a number of configurations:
1. Solar-powered off-grid system - combined with solar panels, and batteries (for energy storage) to
provide power for your household. No grid connection or generator is required.
2. Hybrid system - solar power to be used as the primary energy source, with grid power available as a
back-up.
3. Hybrid system with no grid connection - solar power as the primary energy source, with a connected
generator available as a back-up.
4. Multi-source off-grid system - solar power to be used as the primary energy source, with a secondary
source available to charge the energy storage in parallel (such as a wind turbine).
5. Back-up power system - grid power to be used as the primary energy source, with the Power Pak and
energy storage (with or without solar) available as a back-up in the event of a power outage.
Note: The Power Pak does NOT work as an “on-grid” system, where solar energy can be fed back to the grid
for credit.
Before installing the Power Pak, please take a few moments to understand how it fits into your power system.
The Power Pak is ULc certified. Please make sure that you understand all the safety precautions (see section
5).
