Photo Voltaic (solar power)

If you enjoy the freedom of going off-grid, we can assist you in the selection and installation of the right solar panels and battery, to suit the energy needs of your motorhome, caravan, transportable (Tiny Home) or vessel.  For quality solar power systems and expert certified installation talk to the team at Electrical Inspections Services in Taupo.

Generators

Going off-grid means you need a reliable source of power. A cost-effective way to do this is to have an onboard generator fitted to your motorhome, caravan, transportable or vessel. Generators are also a very useful backup power system when solar hours are low or you operating appliance with a large draw. To connect a generator you need a power cord with the appropriate connectors and a switch for changing the power supply to the generator. For expert advice on generators and the installation of certified electrical connections, talk to the team at EIS in Taupo.

Inverters

Power inverters convert what is most commonly 12v DC supply in caravans, motorohomes and vessels into 240v mains AC. Essentially, this inverts the power direct from battery banks to mains power sockets so you can plug in appliances such as laptops, microwaves, devices, and their chargers. Power inverters also offer the 2 in 1 benefit of being able to charge the battery when your caravan, motorhome or vessel in plugged in. For advice and installation of a reliable and efficient power system on your caravan, motorhome or vessel talk to our team at Electrical Inspections Services in Taupo.
