Grid-Tied Solar Systems
A appropriate inverter is always needed to link grid-connected PV systems to the public electricity grid since photovoltaic panels or arrays (many PV panels) can only produce DC power. A grid-connected PV system, as opposed to a stand-alone PV system, includes the following extra components, in addition to the solar panels:
- Inverter
- Electricity Meter
- AC Breaker Panel and Fuses
- Safety Switches and Cabling
- The Electricity Grid
