Direct Current in the home

With more and more in the home being powered off DC (Direct Current) supplies, e.g. Battery & Solar Panels, then wouldn't it be more economical to consider extending the regulations to cover DC in the home avoiding the need for transformers?

For example, this is particularly appropriate now that lighting is dominated by LED.

  • Interesting that in the BS EN 60038 CENELEC Standard Voltages, that the usual 28 volt DC used on many aircraft is missing, as is the rather unusual 112 volt DC as used on the Vulcan, Valiant and Viscount turbo-prop aircraft.
