The house is made up of three bedrooms, two-car garage with one roof south facing home, and two maths. The PV system will be providing backup electricpower enough to operate four LED lights, a small radio, a medium screen TV with aerial antenna and amplifier, tow box fans, high efficiency 9000 Btu Air condition, and a refrigerator. The house also has one HP pump with an overhead 200Ga water storage having the head of 20 feet and the total 1.5 inch PVC of 50 feet is to be used. There is also a need to design the system to be able to handle the pump. The roof in which the PV system will be installed will be as shown in figure 1 below: The system of solar photovoltaic is an example of system of renewable energy which utilizes modules of PV in the conversion of electricity from sunlight. The generated electricity can be used directly or stored, combined with a single or numerous electricity generators or fed back into the grid line. The system of solar PV is a clean source and reliable

The basic components of solar PV system include loads, auxiliary sources of energy, battery bank, inverter, and solar charge controller[CITATION Lui15 \p 142 \l 2057 ]. The sources of auxiliary energy include the diesel generator or other sources of energy that is renewable. The load involves the electrical devices that will be coupled to the system of solar PV, they include four LED lights, a small radio, a medium screen TV with aerial antenna and amplifier, tow box fans, high efficiency 9000 Btu Air condition, and a refrigerator. The battery will be used in the storage of energy which will be used by the electrical appliances when there is the need. The invert will be used in the conversion of the PV panel’s DC output into a clean alternating current for the appliances using AC[CITATION Sun11 \p 247 \l 2057 ]. The solar charge controller will be involved in the regulation of current and voltage coming from the PV panels towards the battery hence preventing the overcharging of the battery and prolonging its life. The PV module will be involved in the conversion of sunlight into direct current electricity. The Sizing of Solar Panel System The PV solar system will be coupled with other components as shown in the figure below: The system above is a Hybrid AC-DC system which is applicable in connection of consumersof mid-range AC power.

Calculation of the entire Watt-hour daily for every devices to be used: The Watt-hour gotten will be added together for all the appliances to acquire the total Watt-hour on the daily basis which should be provided to the appliances[CITATION Gre13 \p 187 \l 2057 ]. The total Watt-hour for every appliance which will be used in this house can be determined as shown below:Four LED lights: Each LED consumes 40W; For 1 hour, the energy consumed will be 40Wh while in 12 hours in a day, the energy consumed by a single LED will be 480Wh. For the four LEDs, the energy will be 480*4Wh.Energy consumed by four LEDs = 1920WhrA small radio: A radio consumes 300W in one hour, for the whole day, the total energy consumed will be 300*24hours = 7200Whrs per dayA medium screen TV with aerial antenna and amplifier:A medium screen TV consumes 350W in 1 hour, for the whole day, the total energy consumed will be 350*24 = 8400WhrsAreal antenna consumes 120W in 1 hour, for the whole day, the total energy consumed will be 120*24 = 2880WhrsTow box fans:A single box fan consumes 25W per hour, for the whole day, the total energy consumed will be 25*24 = 600Whrs. For two fans, the total energy = 600*2 = 1200Whrs[CITATION Rog111 \p157 \l 2057 ]High efficiency 9000 Btu Air condition:
