How does it save you electricity every day ?
From sunrise: Solar power prioritizes covering your home's "base load."
During the day: Solar power → microinverter → enters your home circuit via a wall outlet, prioritizing offsetting the electricity you're currently using.
If there's a surplus: Excess electricity can be stored in a battery (optional) for continued use at night.
Even smarter: A CT/Smart Meter (optional) monitors the entire house load in real time, dynamically adjusting the output to prioritize self-consumption and minimize backflow to the grid.
Smart circuit breaker
This device monitors the total current on the connected branch circuit.
Microinverter
It works seamlessly with mainstream microinverters.
PA621 serie solar panel
Capture solar energy, supply yourhome, and reduce reliance on the grid.
How It Works
Solar in. AC out. Bills down.
1) Panels capture sunlight (DC)
PA219 / PA621 generate clean DC power.
2) Grid-tied microinverter converts DC→120V AC
With anti-islanding protection, the inverter only outputs when a valid grid signal is detected—and stops immediately during outages.
3) Plug into a standard outlet (NEMA 5-15 / 5-20)
Electricity offsets your home’s real-time consumption first—especially your “always-on” base load.

Safety & Compliance
Built for safety. Use it the right way.
Designed around the “plug-in solar” definition trend
California SB 868 (proposed) describes plug-in/balcony solar as 400–1200W systems that connect to a standard 120V wall outlet and use an integrated microinverter to supply household AC loads.
Three important setup rules (highly recommended):
Use a dedicated circuit outlet (its own breaker; no other outlets/loads on that circuit).
Outdoor outlets should be GFCI-protected + weatherproof covered for permanent use.
For best performance & lower backfeed risk, install a CT monitor in the breaker panel (electrician recommended).
Set up like furniture. Place like patio gear.
Where you can install:
Balcony railing / patio corner
Backyard / garden ground mount
Deck / fence / flat sunny spot
3-step setup:
Mount panels (rail / ground / fence)
Connect DC to microinverter
Plug AC cord into a 120V 15A/20A outlet
Need help?
If you need a dedicated circuit, GFCI upgrade, or CT meter installation, hire a licensed electrician.
Balcony Plug-in Solar— Payback in 4–6 Years
Balcony plug-in solar is defined as a compact 400–1200W system that connects to a standard 120V wall outlet. With an integrated microinverter, it converts DC power to AC to directly support household loads.

General FAQs
No—grid-tied plug-in systems shut down immediately during outages for safety (anti-islanding).
In many places portable plug-in systems may be simpler, but requirements vary—check your city/utility.
Yes. Treat it like patio equipment—move the panels and kit. If your new place needs dedicated circuit/GFCI/CT meter work, redo that part locally.
Use a CT smart meter to optimize self-consumption and minimize backfeed; ensure proper electrical setup.
