Expert Connection of Solar Systems to Your Home

We connect solar panel electrical integration systems to your home’s power supply. Our team handles every step. This includes work from the inverter to your main service panel. We follow NEC Article 690 requirements for all installations. The work includes required disconnect switches. It also includes proper grounding. Every connection gets inspected and tested before we turn it on. We coordinate with your utility company for net metering approval. Our electricians hold specialized solar certifications beyond standard licensing. We size all conductors based on your system’s maximum output current. Most residential installations require a 200-amp or 400-amp service upgrade. This accommodates the new solar backfeed breaker safely.

Complete System Integration

From Roof Panels to Your Electrical Panel

We run conduit from your rooftop array down to the inverter location. The inverter converts DC power to AC that your home can use. We install a dedicated solar breaker in your main panel. It is rated for backfeed. All wiring is sized to handle 125% of the inverter’s continuous output current. We add required labeling at the panel and disconnect locations. Our work includes the AC disconnect near your meter. This gives utility workers safe access.

Common Questions

Residential Electrical FAQs

Common questions from Triangle homeowners about residential electrical services. Don’t see yours? Call us directly — we’re happy to help.
Do I need to upgrade my electrical panel for solar?
Many homes need an upgrade. It depends on panel capacity and solar system size. We calculate your total load plus the solar backfeed requirement. If your main breaker plus the solar breaker exceeds the panel’s busbar rating using the 120% rule, an upgrade is necessary. We evaluate your specific situation during the site assessment. We provide options that fit your needs.
The AC disconnect is a required safety device. We install it between your inverter and main panel. It allows utility workers or firefighters to quickly shut down the solar system. They can do this without entering your home. We mount it in an accessible outdoor location near your meter. This is a code requirement in all jurisdictions. Inspectors will check for it.
Most residential solar electrical integrations take one to two days. This is once the panels and inverter are mounted. We need the rooftop array fully installed before we begin electrical connections. The timeline includes running conduit, making all connections, installing disconnects, and testing the system. We schedule the utility inspection after our work is complete.
We typically connect solar to your main service panel rather than a sub-panel. The connection point must be at or before your first disconnect. This complies with interconnection standards. If your main panel lacks space, we can install a combiner panel. This consolidates your main breaker and solar breaker. We assess your current electrical configuration during the site visit.
Wire sizing depends on your inverter’s output current and the distance from inverter to panel. We follow NEC requirements to size conductors at 125% of maximum continuous current. A typical 8kW inverter requires 10 AWG copper wire for runs under 75 feet. Longer distances need larger wire to minimize voltage drop. We calculate the exact requirements for your installation.

Standard grid-tied solar systems automatically shut down during outages. This protects utility workers. It is required by anti-islanding protection in your inverter. If you want backup power during outages, we can integrate a battery storage system. The battery provides power to selected circuits when the grid is down. This keeps your solar system operational during blackouts.
