Inverters
Solar Power Inverters are one of the most important investments for your Solar Power System.
What is an Inverter?
In simple terms this component converts DC power (Direct Current) into AC power (Alternating Current). DC flows in just one direction , this is ideal for Solar Panels because you need it to simply absorb the sunlight and push it through the system in one direction. This might be an oversimplified explanation but for now, that’s all you need to know for the purpose of this article.
AC flows in both directions , all of your appliances are powered in this way.
Now we have that out the way let’s move on to the next part.
How Do They Work?
The Inverter converts the power produced from the Solar Panels, from DC power into useable AC power.
There are various types of Off-Grid, Grid-Tied, and Hybrid systems.
