How Do On Grid Power Systems Work? 1. Photovoltaic solar panels mounted on your roof, or on a ground mounted frame, use the sun’s solar radiation to generate DC (Direct Current) electricity. 2. The electricity travels to a grid tie inverter , usually located near to the switchboard which converts the DC electricity into 230 volts AC (Alternating Current) as used in your home. 3. The energy generated can be used within the home or business first and any excess electricity is fed into the national grid. If there is little or no solar energy available because of bad weather or at night, energy is sourced from the national grid. A two way (Import/Export) meter is installed in place of your existing meter, to measure the energy you feed in and take from the national grid. How Do Off-Grid Power Systems Work? 1 .
