How to Calculate Battery Capacity for Inverter?

Size of battery can be estimated based on actual connected load and required backup hours. Battery rating defined with Ampere Hours (AH). Please visit loom solar for detail battery size calculation.

Battery Capacity Calculation Formula:

Battery Capacity = Inverter Capacity & Voltage

The charging current is set in the battery. It is very important to know how many Amp's charger to charge. Each inverter has a given rating of charge. If we charge the small battery with the charger of maximum rating, then the layer of lead which remains on the battery cell will heat up and fall in the battery and the battery will get damaged. When the battery is bad, the backup will stop giving and the battery will not start charging. Therefore, the capacity of the battery is selected according to the capacity of the inverter.

Case 1: Commercial Establishment

In January to March month, power consumption of any commercial places, such as office, shop, school, clinic & hospital, etc. the maximum power consumption is 40% - 50% compare than summer season (April to September). When we plan to install inverter battery, we must know annual power consumption.

Step 1: Calculate Continous Load

For example, we are taking an example of one office whereas 50 laptops, 2 desktop, 50 ceiling bldc fans, 60 lights, internet, router, mobile charging, 1 refrigerator, 1 water cooler, 1 printer, and 1.5 ton split inverter ac, and some other lights. During the summer season month of April, the maximum power consumption is 4500 watt whereas during the winter season month of January, the maximum power consumption is 1500 to 2000 watt.

Step 2: Decide Inverter Capacity

Based above power consumption, we have selected 5kVA inverter and this inverter comes in 48V. According to battery capacity calculation formular, we need here 48V battery.

How many hours backup required? In case of commercial establishments, the maximum power cut duration is up to 2 hrs. but it is frequent power cut. The power cut duration might be 5 minutes, 10 minutes, like this. The purpose of installing power backup solution in commercial areas to give uninterpreted power supply to run commercial activities.

Step 3: Think about Power Cut in your area

According to continuous load and backup time, we need 9000 watt hour battery bank. If you select 150Ah lead acid battery, then you need 6-7 batteries and if you select CAML 100Ah lithium battery, then you need 2 batteries.

Case 2: Residential Places

The same scenario in residential homes but home appliances are different. The basic appliances of any homes, such as lights, fans, tv, washing machine, refrigerator, water sump (surface pump / submersible pump), internet, laptop, power socket, iron press, air conditioner (normal ac or inverter ac), and more. The regular power consumption of any home is 300 - 400 watt, but maximum power consumption 1500 – 2200 watt of any 3 BHK homes.

If any home owner wants to run only basic appliances such as fans, tv, light, internet, refrigerator, and power socket, then he needs 1kW inverter and this inverter comes in 24V. Based on this inverter voltage calculation, he need 2 no. of 150Ah lead acid battery. If he run 400 watt loads on home, then it can give 6-7 hrs. backup time.

If any home owner wants to run basic appliances as well as heavy appliances such as water pump, air conditioner, washing machine, dish washer, induction, and more, the he need 3kW inverter and this inverter comes in 48V. Based on this inverter voltage calculation, he need 4 no. of 150Ah lead acid battery. If he wants to install the latest technology battery, then he need 1 no. of CAML100 lithium battery. If he runs 2000 watt load, then it can give 2 hrs. backup time.

Note: The backup time can vary depending on power consumption, so above guide is only for your idea.

I’m Angel Castor from the US. White Caucasian Female. I’m 43 years old and I got married at the age of 25, I have only two children and I am living happily.

After five years of marriage my husband’s behavior became so strange that I didn’t really understand what was going on. He packed out of the house to another woman’s house and I love him so much that I
never dream of losing him, I tried my best to make sure that my husband got back to me but all to no avail, I cried and cried seeking help. I discussed it with my best friend Alison and she told me she can help me. She told me of a man called Dr. Odunga, she told me he is a very great man and a real man that can be trusted and there is nothing concerning love and Pregnancy issues he cannot solve and she told me how he has helped her and countless number of people in

restoring their relationship. I quickly contacted his email address at odungaspelltemple@gmail.com I explained all my problems to him, he told me that I should not worry that all my problems will be fine. Presently, I am very happy I got my husband back to me with the help of Dr. Odunga and we are living happily with so much love for each other. What-app message/call him at +2348167159012 to help you

I just want to say Thank You to everyone who supported me through the years. My name is Manuel Franco, New Berlin, Wisconsin. My story of how I won the Powerball lottery of $768.4M is a bit of a tale. I have been playing Powerball tickets for 6 years now since I turned 18. I bought my first ticket on my 18 birthday. I was feeling very lucky that day because I had contacted Dr. Odunga Michael to help me with the winning Powerball numbers. I really had that great great feeling that I looked at the camera wanting to wink at it. I only did a tiny part of it and trusted him. He gave me the numbers after I played a couple other tickets along with it for $10. I checked my ticket after the winnings came online and saw the numbers were correct including the Power play. I screamed for about 10 minutes because it felt like a dream. I had won $768.4M. You can check my winning testimony with the lottery officials just with my name search. Thank you Dr Odunga. Well, his email is odungaspelltemple@gmail.com and you can also call or Whats-app him at +2348167159012 so you guys can contact him
