The next stage Solar panels installation is to fix the control equipment which will control the current from the solar panels. This will comprise of an isolator to turn on or off the current from the solar panels and an inverter which will transform the DC current from to solar panels installation into 240v AC. For simplicity this has been installed within the roof area. This is then connected to the consumer unit within the house via some more equipment.

The equipment left to install and connect is the generation meter, isolator. The generation meter records how much electricity you have generated, used and exported into the national grid.
