How it actually works

Solar panels generate power all day, storing it in batteries, and then supply that stored power to your connected home. However when the weather turns and the solar panels are no longer creating energy, your household starts using the power that’s been stored in the battery, and the charge level gets lower and lower.

Your back up generator when fitted with a 2 wire auto start is connected directly to your solar’s inverter, so when the battery charge is low, your solar inverter sends a signal to start the generator so it can re-charge the batteries, and once your batteries have re-charged the inverter will send another signal to your generator to stop. This makes this system completely automatic.

The Generator Store offers various models in either petrol or diesel options with a 2 wire auto start fitted. These models can be incorporated into your solar setup so your system is fully automatic.

We have Honda, Yamaha and Dunlite models available in our petrol range, or if a diesel model is preferred we stock the Kubota range of diesel generators
