I’ve got an RV with a DIY solar system and LiFePO4 battery so I understand the off grid solar pretty well.
We’re currently building a 535 sqft fishing cabin an an area with marginally reliable electric power. I would like to eventually install solar (even if it isn’t strictly economical) and a battery backup system and eventually take the cabin off grid some day.
Loads include a mini split heat pump, refrigerator, etc. What must I have to scar for this? Is it sufficient to just put a NEMA 14-50 outlet near where an inverter would eventually live that could be rewired when needed? Or do I need to install a transfer switch and sub panels?
