How To Install Solar Panels and Lights

The document outlines the steps for connecting a solar inverter, which should be installed in a cool location near the main panel, and bonding it to a solar battery for energy storage. It emphasizes the importance of proper installation to prevent system failures and potential fire hazards, as well as the need to test the solar panels after installation to ensure they are functioning correctly. Additionally, it suggests using a generator meter to track daily electricity generation and a computer to verify energy production.

working on this step.

5. Connect the Solar Inverter


The solar inverter is installed near the main panel. It’s best not to mount this on the roof
since it’s supposed to be located in a cool place without sunlight.
This part of the installation process can take about 4-6 hours, depending on the
complexity of your solar panels.
It’s important to set this up properly because the direct current (DC) electricity will be
converted to alternating current (AC) electricity.
Any system failures can cause fires and easily invalidate your home insurance.
You can connect a generator meter to track how much electricity you generate daily
with your solar panels.
6. Bond the Inverter to the Solar Battery
Then, you have to connect your solar inverter to the consumer unit to generate
electricity.
Solar batteries can be considered as an extra cost by some people. It helps store
excess energy and keep your home powered even when your whole system is affected
by cloudy days.
Once everything is connected to the consumer unit and grid input, you can check the
connected generation meter for its performance.
You can also use a computer to verify that your panels collect enough energy to power
your home.
7. Test the Newly Installed Solar Panels
The installation process isn’t complete until you’ve tested the panels.
Switch the power back on and monitor each part. Ensure everything works and is
properly producing energy.
