Before Buying Plug-in Grid Tie Inverter Watch This Video - Safety Warning #gridtiedsolar 2023

In this short presentation, I explain one of the biggest risks to using a plugin grid tie inverter (GTI) or grid tied solar inverter. I created a grid tied wiring diagram with simple graphics to explain the risk. ----------------------------------------- Please vote in this poll! Help me determine what kind of content you'd like to see on the channel:    • Post   ----------------------------------------- Grid tied solar is a lot of fun and very rewarding for the user. But this type of grid tie solar inverter will incur certain risks, and if the homeowner is not aware, could result in a catastrophe. Many people purchase and use grid tie inverters without any awareness of the safety risks and little to no understanding of what they're up against. Grid tie inverter installation can be very quick and easy but safety should never be compromised. I hope this video helps someone, and that they learn something useful about grid tie solar setups before starting their build. Understanding the video subject is of critical importance before purchasing and using a grid tie solar inverter (more so the plug-in type, but technically could still apply to hard wired setups) If you have any questions or comments, please feel free to let me know, and if you would thumbs up and subscribe it would be greatly appreciated.
