DC Systems
In DC systems solar energy is converted into regulated DC. Consequently the regulated DC is fed to the batteries and
consumers. An inverter powers any AC consumers that are connected to the DC system. Unlike in DC systems, solar power is
directly converted into AC in AC systems.

1. DC consumers
A solar panel feeds the consumers practically directly. The only item in between the panel and the power consumer is a charge
controller. This Blue Solar Charge Controller controls the voltages for the consumers and the batteries.
