How Many Panels Do You Need?

|---|---|---|
| 3kW | 6 | 5 |
| 5kW | 9–10 | 8–9 |

Panels are only one part of the system. You also need a good inverter and, for backup, a battery. A popular setup is Tier-1 panels with a hybrid inverter from brands like Infinix Solar, GoodWe or Solis. See our best solar inverters and 5kW system price guides.
Tips for Buying Solar Panels
- Buy Tier-1 brands from authorised distributors and ask for the original warranty.
- Check the flash test report and serial numbers.
- Compare price per watt, not per panel.
- Avoid “A-grade” claims without proof; many cheap panels are B-grade.
