PV (Photovoltaic) Made Simple
What is a Solar PV System?
Residential solar solution systems, often seen as panels adorning rooftops, harness the sun’s power to generate electricity for your home. Sunlight is converted into direct current (DC) electricity by Solar (PV) or photovoltaic cells within the panels.
Unfortunately, this type of direct current power cannot be used in our homes as our appliances and loads use a different kind of voltage. In SA, this voltage is known as AC (Alternating Current). To be able to change DC power to AC power you will need an inverter.
This DC electricity then travels through an inverter, which transforms it into usable alternating current (AC) electricity that powers your appliances and lights. Each solar panel has a Watt rating and the more solar panels you have, the more Watts your system will produce. Watt is the unit for Power.
There are two main types of residential solar solutions systems: grid-tied and off-grid. Grid-tied systems connect to the utility grid, allowing excess solar energy to be sent back to the grid for credits, while off-grid systems rely on batteries to store excess energy for use when the sun isn’t shining.

Power Up Your Home
Understanding Solar Inverters
Solar panels capture sunlight, but your home runs on AC electricity. That’s where the inverter steps in! Think of it as a translator, converting the DC power from your panels into usable AC power for your appliances. Inverters also control the flow and maximize the power you generate from the sun.
Off Grid Inverter
Off-grid inverters do not synchronize with the grid and works alone; meaning that this inverter is used when there is no grid power available and it supplies DC to AC instantly to power up appliances.
Grid Tied Inverter
Grid tied inverters connect our homes and can supplement all our surplus power back to the grid. This type of inverter delivers power to your appliances directly from your PV array when solar power is available and switches back to the grid when not calculating usage for the average home.
See the average daily usage of the appliances in our homes below and the power they use. With this we can calculate the size of solar system you need.
Hybrid Inverter
Hybrid inverters are a combination between solar and battery inverters, intelligently managing power from PV panels, batteries and grid at the same time.
A hybrid solar inverter is the combination of a solar inverter and a battery inverter into a single piece of equipment that can intelligently manage power from your solar panels, solar batteries and the utility grid at the same time.
