How Do Homemade Solar Panels Work?

Have you ever wonder how do homemade solar panels work? First and foremost, the process begins with solar modules. They are the key components being exposed to the sunlight. Their main aim is to convert the sun energy into usable electrical power for your appliances. To get it correctly installed, solar modules are to be mounted on a steel frame and placed onto your rooftops.

Power being produced by the solar modules is converted from Direct Current (DC) to Alternative Current (AC) via the power converter. Generally, Alternating Current (AC) is the usable electrical power that we require to power our appliances.

Next, the electrical power travels from the power converter to the electrical service panel. The electrical service panel is the one responsible for allocating the electrical power to various parts of your house or office for use.

The excess amount of electrical power being generated by the home solar power systems will be brought into the grid through the utility electric meter. Consequently, the meter will be made to move backwards and this establishes a credit with the utility company in offsetting future usage. This process is known as Net Metering and is mandated by State Level Electricity Policy.

This is the common source of power supply many households acquire their electrical power from. It is known as the state infrastructure that connects houses and commercial facilities to electricity generating assets.
