This includes: - Panel placement : The ideal placement for your solar panels is determined to maximize sunlight exposure and system efficiency. - Inverter selection : The inverter is an essential component that converts the direct current (DC) energy produced by the panels into alternating current (AC) energy used by your appliances.
Several key factors influence the decision on where to place solar panels. Solar access is paramount, as the amount of sunlight that reaches the panels throughout the day is crucial for energy production. This involves analysing the sun's path and ensuring panels are placed where they will receive the most sunlight.
The optimal tilt angle of photovoltaic solar panels is that the surface of the solar panel faces the Sun perpendicularly. However, the angle of incidence of solar radiation varies during the day and during different times of the year.
Follow along with the essential steps of photovoltaic systems installation, from mounting solar modules and connecting to the grid, to commissioning and regular maintenance for optimal performance.
To take maximum advantage of solar radiation, it is advisable to orient the solar panels towards the south if we are in the northern hemisphere and the north if we are in the southern hemisphere.
Mounting the panels : The installers will begin by securing mounting brackets to your roof or the ground (if it’s a ground-mounted system). The panels will then be securely attached to these mounts. - Electrical wiring : After the panels are mounted, the electrical wiring will be connected to the inverter and electrical panel in your home.
