This is the process I went through, from unboxing materials, to full assembly, explanation, install and operation of a ground based DIY solar panel system for my residential home.

I added a Home Battery Backup watch the install here: [ Ссылка ]
I used Wholesale Solar, now Unbound Solar, for the solar components and Ready Rack for the racking system. The suppliers mentioned in the video are the ones I used based on my own research, none of it was sponsored, however, using the affiliate links in the description helps out the channel at no cost to you.
