Solar Photovoltaic (PV) System Components

IntroductionPV DisconnectCharge ControllerAC Disconnect SwitchSystem MeteringConclusiondr. edwArd A. frAnklinSolar photovoltaic (PV) energy systems are made up of diferent components. Each component has a specific role. The type of component in the system depends on the type of system and the purpose. For example, a simple PV-direct system is composed of a solar module or array (two or more modules wired together) and the load (energy-using device) it pow...See more on extension.arizona psu
