Abstract (en)

[origin: WO2016040929A1] A solar panel (100a) is disclosed that can be daisy-chained with other solar panels (100b-100n). The solar panel (100a) automatically generates output alternative current (AC) power (195a) that is in parallel with input AC power (112a) coming into the solar panel (100a) when the solar panel (100a) senses the input AC power (112a) so that the solar panel (100a) operates as a slave in this state. The solar panel (100a) automatically generates standalone AC output power (195a) when the solar panel fails to detect input AC power (112a) coming into the solar panel (100a) where the solar panel (100a) operates as a master in this state. The solar panel (100a) generates the standalone output AC power (195a) without any reliance on input AC power (112a) generated by a utility grid and/or other AC power sources external to the solar panel (100a).
