How Solar Works

1. Solar PV Modules supplying DC Power.

2. An Inverter changing the solar DC power into 240V alternating current (AC) suitable for your household appliances and feeding into the grid.

3. Your home uses electricity firstly from the solar PV modules with additional demand supplied from the grid.

4. A meter measuring your electricity production and consumption.

5. Any excess is 'exported' to the electricity grid.
