Solar inverters sync your solar system with the grid by matching voltage, frequency, and phase. Anti-islanding protection prevents backfeeding during outages. . An inverter is one of the most important pieces of equipment in a solar energy system. It's a device that converts direct current (DC) electricity, which is what a solar panel generates, to alternating current (AC) electricity, which the electrical grid uses. They are both connected (via their respective circuit breakers) before the switchboard, so from the junction to the house switchboard it's only one wire. It produces AC that matches the grid waveform. If the reference disappears, the inverter must pull back.
