With the optimization of technology related to solar power system, more and more homes are choosing to install home energy storage devices. Of course, in addition to the common solar batteries, many homes have also installed critical load panels, so what exactly is a critical load panel? And what does it do?
A critical load panel is an important part of a critical load system, which acts similarly to an electrical panel and can be thought of as a second electrical panel. A critical load system is a back-up energy storage system, and batteries are installed in the critical load panel specifically to power essential circuits and appliances, rather than powering all appliances.
In some locations, such as hospitals, companies and factories, there are a number of devices that must be kept powered. Examples include equipment in the emergency room of a hospital, servers in a company and production equipment in a factory. These devices must be running at all times, otherwise the consequences can be quite serious. Things like life-threatening injuries, data loss and machine damage. When a power outage occurs, it’s time for Critical Load Systems, a backup power supply system, to step in.
Of course, critical load systems are not just for those locations. A home is also a good place to install a system that can be used to power essential appliances when a power outage occurs. This is where the critical load panel serves to regulate the direction of power delivery as well as protect the circuits and batteries.
There is no doubt that critical load panels are an important part of a backup energy storage system. If you have appliances in your home that need to run all the time, then installing a backup energy storage system is the right choice for you.
