How do Solar Panels Work? – Working of Photovoltaic (PV) Systems

When panels produce excess solar power, the net metering allows it to transport to the utility grid, rewarding energy credit in exchange. It is where the output of the solar inverter gets attached. From the AC breaker panel, solar power reaches each appliance. The simplified diagram explains the working of the solar panel (photovoltaic) system.
