Grid-Tie Inverter Solar System
A grid-tie inverter solar system is a type of solar power setup that connects directly to the electrical grid. It uses a special inverter to convert the direct current (DC) electricity produced by solar panels into alternating current (AC), which is the type of electricity used in homes and businesses. This system allows homeowners to use the electricity generated by their solar panels and send any excess power back to the utility grid. When the solar panels aren’t producing enough electricity, such as at night or during cloudy weather, the system automatically pulls electricity from the grid, ensuring a steady power supply.
