An on-grid solar system is a grid (Government electricity supply) connected system. This solar system will run your home appliances or connected load (without any limit) by using solar power. If your connected load will exceed the capacity of the installed solar power plant, the system will automatically use the power from the main grid. In case, your connected load is less than the
Of the various types of solar photovoltaic systems, grid-connected systems --- sending power to and taking power . from a local utility --- is the most common. According to the Solar Energy Industries Association (SEIA) (SEIA, 2017), the number of homes in Arizona powered by solar energy in 2016 was 469,000.
