The main components of an Grid-Tie system are: Solar Panels You'll need solar panels to collect the solar energy and convert this to DC power. The number and type of solar panels will determine how
much energy you can produce, as will your geographic location. Combiner Box This box gathers all of the Solar Panel connections. DC Breaker Box Your array's breaker safely shuts down your solar
power system at a moment's notice, allowing for safe maintenance, repair, and inspection. Inverter Inverters take Direct Current power and convert it to household (AC) power. Grid Disconnect A grid
disconnect allows you to stop the flow of electricity between your solar power system and your electrical system. This provides for the safe maintenance of electrical and utility systems.
Grid-tie systems generate electricity, sending this energy back to your utility company's power grid.
