9. On Grid / Grid Tied System:
The solar modules generate DC electricity. The DC power goes
through a Solar ON Grid Inverter
Solar Grid Tied Inverter: performs the conversion of the
variable DC output into a clean sinusoidal AC power
Inverter output connected to Bus Bar (Distribution Panel)
The Solar Current will be given lead angle in synchronization
process and it will be forcefully injected into the bus bar
Depending on the type of ON Grid System the revenue or profits
will be gained

10. SYNCHRONISATION:
The inverter measure the grid (voltage, frequency, phasing) and use
this information to synchronize the internal regulation. It means the
inverter start up with an open grid contactor and with a grid
independent frequency. Then the controller change the internal
frequency, voltage and phasing so long as this is absolute identical to
the given values from the grid. Now the electronic will close a soft
start contactor for pre magnetise the internal transformer. Few parts
of a second later the main grid contactor will close and the inverter
will feed in. If the grid values will be changed during the inverter
feeds in grid monitoring will detect it and the controller will adjust
the internal regulation so that inverter is whole time synchronal to
the grid
