Abstract :
This paper proposes an architecture and the overview of implementing the DC system in a house. The architecture is designed to be the platform that merges modern loads and supply energy sources with efficiency. Renewable sources generate different voltage levels and either in AC or DC. Converting all voltage levels and systems into DC and supplying directly to the load improves efficiency of the system. We propose the implementation steps that an be done by modifying current technologies.
