Inverter was mounted inside the house with a draw cord for data cable- later we might add a logging system.

Today the PV panels and inverter were installed. However because we have a new Electrical meter we have to wait for power company to update before we can use the energy from the sun. If we run the panels before then the meter will double charge us!
