An electrical load is an electrical component or portion of a circuit that consumes solar power. In electric power circuits examples of loads are fans, lights, washing machines.

The estimated cost of owning, operating, and disposal of a solar PV system over its useful life.

LT Panel is an electrical distribution board that receives power from an solar panels and distributes the same to various electronic devices and distribution boards. Such panels are used in industries both for internal and external use and, therefore, they…

kWh is the abbreviation for kilowatt-hours. A kWh is the basic unit of solar electricity used worldwide. If you are consuming 1,000 units of electricity every month, you are consuming 1,000 kWh a month. A watt-hour (Wh) is the amount…

An electrical junction box is a container for electrical connections, usually intended to conceal them from sight and deter tampering. The electrical connections from the solar panels will placed in the junction box.

Islanding refers to the condition in which a solar plant continues to power a location even though electrical grid power from the electric utility is no longer present.

A solar inverter is the brain for a solar power plant. An inverter’s core function is to convert Direct Current (DC) generated by the solar PV panels into Alternating Current (AC) required by our electrical loads. In addition, it integrates…

Insulated-Gate Bipolar Transistor is an efficient, fast switching device. In solar inverters, this switch performs the key functions to convert direct current from the solar cells to an alternating current.

A solar electric or photovoltaic system that includes other sources of electricity generation, such as wind or diesel generators, through a hybrid inverter.

A grid-tied solar power system (also referred to as grid-integrated, or on-grid or utility-interactive) produces solar power that is fed to the load interactively with the utility grid – hence the term grid-tied, as the system is tied, literally, to…
