This setup seems small to power a pump for appreciable time as may b required in a farm

This is a bit relative, please get someone who is an expert that you can meet in person to make your first few purchases for you.

Also ensure that you buy products that have manufacturer's warranty.

The question is very important.. what is the best inverter to rely upon.. irrespective of its price. To save cost of purchasing separate MPTT charge controller is it advisable to go with an inverter with inbuilt mppt?

How much would it cost to power 2 1hp borehole water pumps round the clock
Re: Installation Of A 3.5kva Inverter And Its Corresponding Solar Panels by SolnergyPower: 12:22pm On May 14, 2017
Please give a breakdown of how the pumps will work because I doubt if any water pump works round the clock!

True it will work for a few hours a day about 6-7 hours. But I'm trying to have a fail safe system which I can call on anytime I need the power.

Options:

a. Solar pump with battery backup at night. You can use this at night and during the day. This is more efficient but most expensive.
b. 3.5KVA 48V inverter plus 8 batteries (4x2). You can use this at night and during the day.
c. 3.5KVA 24V inverter plus 2 batteries. You can use this only in the day. Least expensive.

if I have only a single 1.5hp pump, can I use it at night with the c option (3.5kva with only two batteries)?
Re: Installation Of A 3.5kva Inverter And Its Corresponding Solar Panels by SolnergyPower: 10:47pm On Apr 29
Except it's an emergency and the batteries are fully charged otherwise we won't advise you to.

but can 3.5kva with two batteries serve an average Nigerian family?
Re: Installation Of A 3.5kva Inverter And Its Corresponding Solar Panels by SolnergyPower: 9:52am On May 02
It is the load that's in question and not size of the family.

What do you want to power?

normal family requirements, mostly fridge, freezer, pumping water, television, microwave, ironing of clothes,home theatre, television etc. No plans of air conditioners for now due to personal reasons but it can change in the future. The planned doesn't have electricity yet but electric pole is less than 2 kilometres away
