The
solar cells in the modules convert the sun’s energy into a
DC electrical current. This DC current flows into an inverter which
changes the DC electricity to AC electricity in order to run household
appliances. The AC electricity flows into your electrical service
panel to supply power to your home. If your MyGen™ system
produces more electricity than you use, the excess electricity is
re-routed to your utility line and, in states with net metering
laws, is sold to the utility. The utility provides power at night
and during the day when your electrical demand exceeds what your
solar system produces. During a power outage, your solar system
automatically shuts down unless the system includes battery backup. |
