Wheatsheaf

What Wheatsheaf needs from a system.

Wheatsheaf is a rural district around five kilometres north east of Daylesford, close enough to the spa towns to feel like part of them and far enough out to have room. Blocks are larger than in town, with sheds, dams and paddocks.

People who move out to acreage like this often add things in stages, a house first and then a workshop, a studio or a second dwelling. A system designed with the next stage in mind saves doing the switchboard twice, and an inverter with room to grow can be a good choice.

Questions

Asked about solar in Wheatsheaf.

Can I add panels or a battery later if I plan to build a workshop?
Yes, if the original design leaves room for it: spare capacity on the inverter, space on the board and conduit that can take more cable. Tell us what you expect to build and we can plan the system with that in mind.
What size solar system suits a home around Wheatsheaf?
The systems we have finished nearest to Wheatsheaf run from about 4.5 kW to 24 kW, and the middle of that is about 10 kW. Your bill and your roof set the real number.
What battery sizes have you installed near Wheatsheaf?
Anything from 5.5 kWh to 54 kWh on recent jobs nearby, with about 24 kWh most typical. Your evening and overnight use sets the size.
Do you work with single phase and three phase supply near Wheatsheaf?
Yes. Our recent jobs nearby include both, and the inverter is chosen to match the supply at your place.
Who handles the connection to the power network?
We do. The connection application is part of the job.
