Solar grid systems in the home

The course will cover the use of solar grid systems and is a follow on from the Setting up a solar battery off-grid course, Saturday 17 June 2023.

This home grid course covers the use of solar panels that are connected to the grid via a grid inverter. We will discuss the aspect and fitting of panels, the matching of panels to various grid inverters and the integration into home power systems. As with the battery course, an understanding of ohms law and how panels work is very desirable, so the Solar battery course would be an ideal primer.

We will also discuss the use of a grid diverter to reduce export and help with water and/or space heating.
