A Grid Tie Inverter is an inverter designed to transform the direct current from solar panels into the alternating current best suited for the utility grid. More and more homes are equipping themselves with solar panels. When a house has solar panels, the house becomes self-reliant on its energy requirements. Batteries are not required for these inverters, thus making them inexpensive and low maintenance. Grid tie inverters are usually found in residential solar systems, commercial solar systems, and industrial solar systems because no power interruption from the grid. Most models include a monitoring feature, safety certification, and anti-islanding protection. They optimise the use of solar energy and promote its renewable and economic use.
Benefits
1) It uses solar power straight away for use with mains.
2) By net metering or sending surplus energy back to the grid, it lessens electricity expenses.
3) Runs without batteries which cuts costs and maintenance.
4) It gives real-time checkups with high conversion efficiency.
5) During power outages, solar shutdown is to protect everyone against electric shock. The inverter will automatically disconnect.
