Determining your inverter manufacturer

To find your inverter manufacturer you need to: 1) Find your inverter. An inverter is typically installed outside near your other electrical equipment. However, some electric panels are installed indoors. Indoor locations can include the garage, basement, or utility room. 2) Look for the logo. Once you find your inverter, it should have the manufacturer's logo on or around the equipment.

Solar Breakers

Identifying your solar breakers

The solar breakers could be labeled solar breakers, inverter breakers or photovoltaic (PV) breakers. They will typically have an accompanying sticker or other form of clear identification.

Subpanel: If your solar breakers is installed inside a subpanel, go to your subpanel to complete this step. No solar breaker: If your system is is tied directly into your electrical meter, you will skip this step.
