A power outage can be costly, especially if it’s long or frequent. It can also affect productivity and damage sensitive equipment. According to the U.S. Department of Energy, tens of billions of dollars are lost each year due to power outages, 67% of which are caused by short-term power failures that last less than five minutes.

A battery backup system can provide electricity during a power outage, allowing you to continue work or even finish your meal. It is made up of a battery that stores energy as direct current (DC) and an inverter that converts DC to alternating current, which powers your devices.

You can choose to back up only certain loads so that your battery system is cost-effective. Covered loads are segregated from non-covered ones by a transfer switch, which is connected to the utility connection and the sub-panel where the inverter is connected with covered loads.

If your home is flooded, make sure to follow the advice from local authorities and stay safe. Keep your radio tuned to the latest news and be prepared to evacuate if necessary. You should also ensure that your fuse box and utility meter are above an expected flood level. You should also consider taking out a flood insurance policy. To know more about Battery Backup Nerang, visit the Sun Solar Australia website or call 1800931992.
