Solar Inverter

Solar Inverter

An inverter is a critical piece of equipment in any PV system. The inverter takes DC power, either from your solar panels or batteries, and turns it into AC power, ready and usable for your household appliances.

Grid-tie and off-grid solar systems use different types of inverters.

Grid-Tie Solar Inverters

In a grid-tied system, solar panels connect directly to an inverter which ties into your main household electrical panel. It sends power into the home to run appliances and turns back the meter with excess energy.

Grid-Tie inverters come in several options: Central Inverter, String inverters, Micro inverters, and Optimizers. Each varies with features and costs.

Off-Grid Inverters

Off-grid inverters connect to a battery bank and change DC battery power into household AC power. Off-grid inverters work with 12v, 24v or 48v battery banks.

The AC output is typically 240Vac for inverters. Some off-grid inverters have an extra connection that enables them to function like a grid-tie inverter and sell power into the grid. This is useful if you start out off-the-grid but plan for power lines in the future, or if you live in an area where utility power is unreliable.

Off-grid inverters are a little complicated, due to the extra components involved in an off-grid system.

Which Solar Inverter is best for My Rooftop Solar Plant?

With so many solar inverters of different brands available in the market, it can be a challenge to select the correct inverter for your roof-top solar plant. Your solar plant needs to survive to the expected 25 years and the solar inverter is the heart of the system, so make sure you ask the right questions before making your decision.
