LORENZO, MARK A., NOCON, MARK JOSEPH H, and OLAES, DARVIN B., Development of 1KW Solar AC/DC Power Supply for Domestic Application Undergraduate Project Design, Bachelor of Science in Industrial Technology major in Electrical.Cavite State University Rosario Campus, Rosario,Cavite. April 2016.Adviser. Mr. Nemrod M. Zoleta. Technical critic: Mr. Ariesthotle D. Arive.

The study was conducted from July 2015 to February 2016 to develop a 1KW Solar AC/DC Power Supply for Domestic Application. Specifically, the study aimed to;1) design the 1KW Solar AC/DC Power Supply for Domestic Application. 2) construct a 1KW Solar AC/DC Power Supply for Domestic Application from supply and materials available in the local market. 4) evaluate the performance of the device in terms of: a) voltage, ampere, and temperature of solar panel in a given period of time; b) charging time of the storage battery by using solar panel; c) discharge time until it reached 50% battery level.

The 1KW solar AC/DC power supply for domestic application was constructed with five major components which include the solar panel as the power supply, battery as the main storage, solar charge controller which provide protection to the battery, the load, the inverter that converts DC to AC,and the convenience outlet.

The main storage and supply section have a 200 watts solar panel to produce electricity and then it will charge the 100 Ah deep cycle battery. This battery used as the main storage of power. A toggle switch manually operated by the users to select the battery to use and its stored power or electricity distributed to other sections and perform their functions.

The solar charge controller has a current rating of 10 A and provide protection for the battery and the load. It has an overcharging, overload and reverse polarity protection. It cut off automatically the supply when the battery reaches its highest voltage. It's can also set time for the charging and operation depending on the mode.

The inverter has power rating 1500 watts. It converts the DC supply from the battery to AC output. The convenience outlet can provide AC and DC output that can be used by the user for the load.

The testing and evaluation of the study was measured using digital multi-tester and thermometer. The average output voltage and current of the solar panel between 7:00 AM to 6:00 PM was 13.08 volts and 2.41 ampere using a digital multi-tester. The intensity of light energy was between 10:00 AM to 3:00 PM. And the output temperature of the ambient using digital thermometer was 41.19 °C

The study revealed that when there was presence of sunlight,the battery could charge in a shorter period of time. The fully charged state of the 12V battery is between 13.6V to 13.8 V.The total cost of the device was 21,900.66.
