Solar energy is one of the main power sources of electricity in the world. It has become widespread as an attractive solution to provide low power consumption to human groups live in remote villages or areas away from the national electric grid, also when the electric power is underproduction such as in our country (Iraq). For this reasons we designed a system of photovoltaic generator with facilities to be built in houses. The system consists of three basic parts of equipment, 3KW peak solar panels, which could be spread easily at the housetop, a storage battery system and the electrical control system. The electrical control system was completely designed and tested using ORCAD simulator, it consists of 4KW battery charge regulator with 300V system, and 220V, 50Hz transformerless three – level square wave inverter.
