I want to do solar power + regular grid living. The idea being, you could run your own separate grid that is optionally rigged without having to follow electric code, so it is easily modifiable.
- Solar system, buy or build your own
- DC / AC converter
- Extension cords
- Cord Protectors affixed to walls, with extension cord "outlets"
All this for a garage area not affixed to the house, or even into the house through a house port. As far as I understand it, it would all be non-permanent wiring, not requiring electric code changes, since it doesn't hook to municipal power.
The idea here is not to have a huge house-grade system to run stoves or refrigerators on, but power simple things alternatively. Food dehydrators, electronics, garden water pumps, ect.
