Solar and battery backup work in La Joya: local conditions

In the Rio Grande Valley the cooling season barely ends, so air conditioners, breakers and service connections carry heavy loads nearly all year, and tropical storms from the Gulf add outages and surges. Common work here includes AC circuit repairs, panel upgrades for homes that have added cooling load, and weather-rated outdoor wiring. We plan solar and battery backup work in La Joya with those conditions in mind.

Solar & Battery Backup near La Joya

Solar and battery backup work in La Joya: common questions

Do solar panels work during a power outage?

Not on their own. Standard grid-tied solar shuts down in an outage to protect line workers. A battery backup system with the right transfer equipment lets your solar keep powering the home.

How long will a home battery run my house?

It depends on the battery capacity and what you run. Lights, refrigeration, internet and fans can run for a long time. Central air conditioning draws a battery down quickly, so many systems back up selected circuits.

Do I need a panel upgrade for solar in La Joya?

Sometimes. The amount of solar a panel can accept is tied to its bus rating. If your panel is too small or is full, an upgrade or a solar-ready panel solves it.

Can you add a battery to my existing solar system?

In most cases, yes. Depending on your inverter, the battery is either AC-coupled alongside it or the inverter is replaced with a hybrid unit.
