Description

Each EMP kit consists of the following three things:

  1. An EMP hardened inverter
  2. 40 ferrite suppressors come for PV panels
  3. 20 ferrite suppressors come for appliances in the home

If the customer desires EMP battery backup – we recommend:

  • Sol-Ark PCC230 (230Ah) batteries
