2. Electrical conduit - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electrical_conduit

   Galvanized rigid conduit (GRC) is galvanized steel tubing, with a tubing wall that is thick enough to allow it to be threaded. Its common applications are in commercial and industrial construction. [1] It is designed to protect wire and connectors. Intermediate metal conduit (IMC) is a steel tubing heavier than EMT but lighter than RMC. It may ...

3. Rooftop solar power - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rooftop_solar_power

   Solar panels produce carbon free electricity when irradiated with sunlight. Often made of silicon, solar panels are made of smaller solar cells which typically have six cells per panel. Multiple solar panels strung together make up a solar array. Solar panels are generally protected by tempered glass and secured with an aluminum frame. [11]

   Solar panels on a rooftop in New York City Community solar farm in the town of Wheatland, Wisconsin [1] Solar power includes solar farms as well as local distributed generation, mostly on rooftops and increasingly from community solar arrays. In 2023, utility-scale solar power generated 164.5 terawatt-hours (TWh), or 3.9% of electricity in the ...

5. Building-integrated photovoltaics - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Building-integrated...

   Transparent solar panels use a tin oxide coating on the inner surface of the glass panes to conduct current out of the cell. The cell contains titanium oxide that is coated with a photoelectric dye. [25] Most conventional solar cells use visible and infrared light to generate electricity. In contrast, the innovative new solar cell also uses ...

6. Electrical wiring in North America - Wikipedia

   The neutral is connected to the center tap of the power company transformer of a split-phase system, or the center of the wye connection of a polyphase power system. United States electrical codes require that the neutral be connected to earth at the "service panel" only and at no other point within the building wiring system.

7. Solar panel - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Solar_panel

   A solar panel is a device that converts sunlight into electricity by using photovoltaic (PV) cells. PV cells are made of materials that produce excited electrons when exposed to light. These electrons flow through a circuit and produce direct current (DC) electricity, which can be used to power various devices or be stored in batteries.
