In this video I break down the fundamentals of HOW to design an off-grid electrical system. I suggest starting with a list of all your "must have" items, and then tallying everything that requires power, and calculating how much power each item uses.

In part two, I go into detail on how to calculate all of the appropriately sized wires for each of your electrical loads, as well as the necessary fuses and breakers.
