Abstract

An alternative to the use of solar systems is an electricity saving activity that can provide a profit if the load used is in accordance with the level of capacity of the system. Load selection in solar systems is very important in ensuring the stability of the system itself. Energy from sunlight is the main source of direct current power generation but it is subject to the capabilities of the Maximum Power Point Tracking (MPPT) solar charger controller used. The selection of the appropriate load will provide good efficiency as well as more efficient energy savings. In this paper,13Watt LED bulb, 24Watt Twisted fluorescent lamp and 30Watt T8 LED lamp are tested in an experimental study to see the effect of their use on the inverter current, the current flowing through the photovoltaic panel and the current used to charge a battery in the solar system. These data will be used to make comparisons with the energy savings generated by this solar system to provide longer time to use. The brightness of the lamp is also compared using digital Lux meters. The results of this study have shown that the use of 13Watt LEDs is more economical in terms of direct current (Dc) power and contributes to brighter lighting than the 24Watt twisted fluorescent lamp and 30Watt T8 LED lamp used.
