Where a solar inverter differs from a normal inverter
The solar inverter consists of a solar charge controller and some switching circuits. It has a terminal for connecting the battery and solar panels of correct rating. The battery is charged from the output of solar panels when it is under sufficient sunlight. It allows reducing the electricity bill. Solar inverter consists of solar panels, charge controller, batteries and inverters. In a solar inverter, the photovoltaic solar panel produces variable direct current (DC). The inverter converts this direct current into alternating current. Solar panels can be placed at homes as well as offices. The converted AC power can be used by power appliances.
