Inverter and battery power backup

A practical backup setup for keeping essential appliances running during outages.

Power backup focuses on stability first. The right inverter and battery combination keeps critical loads running through outages, without you having to invest in a full solar array straight away. Panels can be added later.

Best for
  • Homes and small offices with outage interruptions
  • Keeping lights, TV, Wi-Fi and charging running
  • Businesses that need to keep working through blackouts
  • Sites that may add solar panels later
What is included

One system,
planned end to end.

Every power backup project is sized and installed as a complete outcome, not a pile of separate parts.

  1. 01

    Inverter matched to load size

    Sized for the appliances you want to keep running, with headroom for start-up surges.

  2. 02

    Battery bank sized by backup hours

    Capacity chosen for how long your outages usually last.

  3. 03

    Changeover and protection planning

    Safe switching between grid and backup, with the right breakers.

  4. 04

    Clean wiring and safe placement

    Ventilated, tidy placement of the inverter and batteries.

  5. 05

    Optional future solar expansion

    A setup that can take solar panels later without starting over.

Common questions

FAQs

How long will a backup system run during a blackout?

That depends on the battery capacity and what is switched on. A battery holding 5kWh of usable energy runs a 500W load for roughly 10 hours. We size the battery around your usual outage length.

Can I add solar panels to my backup system later?

Yes, if the inverter supports solar input (a hybrid inverter) or you add a charge controller. Tell us if you plan to add panels, so we choose equipment that can grow.

Lithium or gel battery for backup?

Gel costs less up front for small systems, but lithium gives more usable capacity and a much longer listed cycle life. Our lithium vs gel guide compares them with real shop prices.
