General information only
All content on Inverter HQ is provided for general informational and educational purposes only. We make no representation or warranty of any kind regarding the accuracy, completeness, reliability, or timeliness of any information about solar PV systems, inverters, panels, batteries, or their installation and maintenance. Products, standards, pricing, and best practices change over time and vary by region. Any action you take based on this content is strictly at your own risk, and we are not liable for any losses or damages in connection with the use of our site.
Electrical safety — please read this
Solar photovoltaic systems are not a casual DIY electrical project. They involve high-voltage direct current (DC) that remains live in daylight even when the AC side is switched off, along with grid-tie connections, energy storage, and equipment that can cause fire, electric shock, arc flash, serious injury, or death if handled incorrectly. DC arcs do not self-extinguish the way household AC faults often do.
The guidance on Inverter HQ is written to help you understand your system and make informed decisions — not to qualify you to perform electrical work. Always consult and use a licensed, qualified solar installer or electrician for any design, wiring, commissioning, connection to the grid, battery installation, or repair. Work that affects your grid connection is regulated and, in most places, must be carried out and certified by an accredited professional. Do not open, probe, or rewire live equipment based on anything you read here.
No professional advice
The content on Inverter HQ is not a substitute for professional advice. Nothing here constitutes electrical, engineering, safety, financial, legal, or regulatory advice specific to your situation. Local electrical codes, grid-connection rules, permitting requirements, incentives, and manufacturer instructions govern your particular installation — always follow them and seek the guidance of a qualified professional. Never disregard professional advice or delay seeking it because of something you read here.
Manufacturer instructions and warranties
Your equipment’s manuals, datasheets, and warranty terms always take precedence over general guidance on this site. Performing work yourself, or having it done by an unaccredited party, may void warranties or breach the terms of your grid connection. Check before you act.
