Solar Components

There is more to a solar power system than just the panels and it’s important to consider the quality of all components when choosing a system.

A solar power system is made up of the following components:

  • Solar panels – the most important part of the system and makes up the majority of the cost of the system.
  • Inverter – converts DC electricity generated at the panels into 240V AC power which can be used in your home or exported to the grid.
  • Mounting system – physically connects the solar panels to your roof.
  • Electrical components – includes cables, isolators, breakers and switches. (sometimes referred to as the “Balance of System”).

On the following pages, you’ll find detailed information on each of the components that make up a system, what to look out for in selecting panels and inverters and why we’ve selected the particular brands that we use in our systems.

On dealing with Infinite Energy, you’ll notice that we view installing solar as a financial investment so a long term view is needed. Up front price is always an important factor, but the overall return on investment for the life of the solar system is much more important. This is why we balance upfront purchase price with supplying top quality solar components that will last well past the payback period for the system (after all, if your system will take 3 years to pay itself off but then dies after 3 years, the whole investment was really a waste of time and effort)

Just as important as the system quality is the company who installs your system. This is important as the install company is responsible for installing the system professionally in order to maximise yield, ensuring warranty conditions are met as well as being there down the track if any problems arise.
