RS Electrical Group
Residential Solar Panels and Battery Storage Perth
RSEG designs and installs residential solar panel and battery systems for homes across the Perth metropolitan area. Based in Southern River, our team can assess your electricity use, roof layout and future energy requirements to recommend a system suited to the property rather than relying on a standard package.
A well designed solar system can reduce the amount of electricity purchased from the grid by generating power during daylight hours. The most suitable system size depends on factors such as household consumption, roof orientation, available space, shading, electricity tariffs and when energy is normally used.
RSEG can install solar panels, inverters, hybrid inverters, battery storage, monitoring equipment and associated switchboard protection. We can also assess existing solar systems when homeowners want to add a battery, increase capacity or prepare for future electrical loads such as an EV charger, pool equipment or split system air conditioning.
Battery storage allows excess solar energy to be saved for use later, commonly during the evening or overnight. A battery may also help reduce grid consumption during higher cost periods where time based tariffs apply. However, battery storage is not automatically the most economical option for every household. The likely value depends on electricity usage, solar generation, tariffs, battery capacity and expected operating life.
Standard grid connected solar systems generally shut down during a power outage for safety. Backup power requires a compatible battery system, inverter, switching arrangement and nominated backup circuits. Not every battery installation powers the entire home during an outage, so the intended backup loads should be discussed during system design.
RSEG can coordinate the electrical installation, switchboard assessment and applicable network connection requirements. All work is completed by appropriately licensed and accredited personnel. For qualifying electrical installation work, RSEG provides the required electrical safety documentation in accordance with Western Australian requirements.
Frequently Asked Questions
Have a read through some of the frequently asked questions we get asked every day as electricians and if you’re still needing help, please get in touch on our contact us page!
-
The suitable size depends on your electricity consumption, roof space, shading, budget, export limits and future energy requirements.
-
Not necessarily. Solar can reduce grid electricity use, but bills may still include fixed charges and electricity consumed when the system is not generating enough power.
-
Suitability depends on available space, orientation, pitch, shading, roof condition and structural considerations. Multiple roof areas may sometimes be used.
-
Yes, but output is usually lower than under clear, direct sunlight.
-
It depends on how much excess solar energy you generate, when you use electricity, your tariff and the cost and capacity of the proposed battery.
-
Often, yes. Compatibility depends on the existing inverter, switchboard and system design.
-
A standard grid-connected solar system generally will not. Backup operation requires compatible equipment and a system designed specifically to supply selected circuits or the home during an outage.
-
Yes. An appropriately configured EV charger can use available solar generation, although charging performance depends on system output, household demand and charger controls.
-
Not always. RSEG will assess the available space, protective devices, wiring and capacity before confirming whether switchboard work is required.
-
Yes. Most modern systems offer an application or online portal showing solar generation, household consumption, battery status and grid import or export.
