“Draw a residential single-line diagram for an 8 kW rooftop PV array with a 7.6 kW hybrid inverter, 13.5 kWh lithium battery, 240/120 V utility service, and a 60 A critical-load panel.”
Read the decisions behind it.
The 8.0 kWdc array feeds a 7.6 kWac hybrid inverter through a 600 Vdc disconnect.
The battery connects on the inverter DC side using a 48 V, 13.5 kWh rating.
A 40 A AC breaker lands at the 240/120 V main service panel.
Only the critical-load panel sits behind the 60 A backup feeder.
Use this layout for a single-phase home with selected backup loads. Final conductor and overcurrent sizing must be confirmed for the installed equipment and local code.

Common questions
Why is the battery connected to the hybrid inverter?
A hybrid inverter manages both PV production and battery charging or discharge in this DC-coupled arrangement.
What is on the critical-load panel?
It commonly contains selected lighting, refrigeration, communications, and receptacle circuits sized within the backup capability.
Is this a construction drawing?
It is a clear system concept; the final permit set needs site-specific protection, grounding, and conductor details.
