Electrical Connection

 

5.1  System Diagram with Inverter Electrical connection

PV Panel: Provide DC power to inverter.

Converts DC (Direct Current) power from PV panel(s) to AC (Alternating 
Current) power. Because Inverter is grid-connected it controls the current 
amplitude according to the PV Panel power supply. Inverter always tries to 
convert the maximum power from your PV panel(s).

 Connection system: This “interface” between Utility and PV-Inverter may 
consist  of  electrical  breaker,  fuse  and  connecting  terminals.  To  comply 
with  local  safety  standards  and  codes,  the  connection  system  should  be 
designed and implemented by a qualified technician.

Utility: Referred to as “grid” in this manual, is the way your electric power 
company provides power to your place. Please note that Inverter can only 
be connected to low-voltage systems(namely,230VAC,50Hz).
