Frequently Asked Questions about 13.2kW Solar Systems

Can a 13.2kW solar system go on a single-phase home?

No — Western Power requires 3-phase for systems with inverters above 5kW exporting. 13.2kW uses a 10kW inverter, mandating 3-phase. If you only have single-phase, 10kW is the cap.

Is 13.2kW too much for a residential home?

Not in Perth. With 5+ peak sun hours, a 13.2kW system suits homes consuming 40+ kWh/day, EV households, or anyone planning to add a battery and electrify (induction cooktop, heat pump hot water).

Can I add a battery to a 13.2kW system?

Yes — 13.2kW pairs naturally with 16–20kWh of battery. With the federal Cheaper Home Batteries rebate, full systems start around $21,300 installed.
