Overview of an On-Grid Solar System
An on-grid solar system, also called a grid-tied system, is directly connected to your local electricity grid. It allows you to use solar power during the day and automatically export any surplus energy back to the grid — helping you earn energy credits and cut down on monthly bills.
With Get Roof Solar, you also enjoy the benefit of government subsidies ranging from ₹30,000 to ₹78,000, depending on the capacity of your system.
The final cost of installation varies based on your city, system size, panel type, inverter, and mounting structure design. For reference:
- 3 kW system in Bhopal (with subsidy): ~ ₹1,35,000
- 5 kW system in Bengaluru (with subsidy): ~ ₹3,00,000
An on-grid system from Get Roof Solar is ideal for homes and housing societies with stable grid supply. It offers maximum savings, long-term reliability, and seamless integration — empowering you to enjoy clean, free power for years while contributing to a greener, energy-independent India.
What is an On-Grid Solar System?
An on-grid solar system, also known as a grid-tied system, connects directly to your local electricity grid through a bi-directional (net) meter. This setup allows you to use solar power during the day and automatically export surplus electricity back to the grid, earning you energy credits and lowering your monthly bills.
Most Indian homes with a stable grid connection prefer on-grid solar because it is powerful, efficient, and fully capable of meeting day-to-day energy requirements.
An on-grid solar system is made up of several key components that work together to convert sunlight into usable electricity:
- Solar Panels
- Solar Inverter
- Mounting Structures
- Bi-directional Meter (Net Meter)
- Solar Accessories — AC/DC cables, combiner boxes, conduit trays, earthing wires, MC4 connectors, and more
What are the on-grid solar components?
1. Solar Panels
Solar panels are installed on your rooftop, ideally facing south for maximum sunlight exposure. When sunlight hits the panels, it is converted into Direct Current (DC) electricity.Since household appliances run on Alternating Current (AC), this DC power is sent to the inverter for conversion.
2. Solar Inverter
The inverter is the heart of the solar system. It converts DC power into AC power, making the energy from your panels usable for your home.
3. Mounting Structures
These structures provide strong mechanical support to hold the panels securely for decades. At Get Roof Solar, we use premium prefabricated steel mounts that are hot-dip galvanized to prevent rust and can withstand wind speeds up to 180 km/h, ensuring safety even in extreme weather.
4. Solar Accessories
Though less visible, accessories are vital for safety and smooth operation:
- AC/DC Cables – connect panels, inverters, and junction boxes.
- DC Combiner Box – safely collects and channels DC current from panels to the inverter.
- AC Combiner Box – distributes converted AC power from the inverter.
- Earthing System – ensures safe dissipation of excess current and protection from lightning.
All DC connections are made using MC4 connectors to ensure weatherproof, secure joints.
5. Bi-Directional Meter (Net Meter)
This smart meter tracks both the
- If your system sends more power to the grid than you consume, those units are deducted from your bill.
- If you draw extra power from the grid, it’s simply added to your bill.
This seamless net metering process ensures maximum savings and transparency every month.
With Get Roof Solar, every on-grid system is professionally engineered, precisely installed, and backed by leakage-free mounting and a performance guarantee — giving you clean, reliable, and cost-efficient energy for over 25 years.
Here’s how this solar net metering process helps:
- If you supply more units to the grid than you consumed, those units will be deducted from your bill. It will reduce the bill further.
- If you use extra units from the grid in addition to what your solar plant generated, those units would be added to your bill.
HOW DOES AN ON-GRID SOLAR SYSTEM WORK?
Now you’ve seen how multiple on-grid solar system components come together, it makes sense to break down the process of sunlight getting converted into electricity.
Here’s how an on-grid solar system works:
1. Solar Energy Capture & DC Power Generation
Solar panels made of photovoltaic (PV) cells capture sunlight and absorb photons, releasing electrons within their semiconductor layers. This electron flow generates direct current (DC) electricity.
The total DC output depends on panel efficiency, sunlight intensity, and shading—in short, the more sunlight your panels receive, the more power they produce.
2. DC-to-AC Conversion via the Solar Inverter
The solar inverter acts as the brain and heart of your solar system. It converts the DC electricity produced by panels into alternating current (AC) — the standard form used in Indian households (230V, 50 Hz).
Modern inverters feature Maximum Power Point Tracking (MPPT), which intelligently adjusts voltage and current to extract the highest possible power from your panels at all times.
3. Power Flow Through the Bi-Directional (Net) Meter
Once the DC power is converted into grid-compatible AC, it passes through a bi-directional (net) meter.
This smart meter records both imports and exports — tracking how much electricity your home draws from the grid and how much it sends back — ensuring you’re billed only for the net consumption.
4. Powering Your Home with Solar Energy
During the day, all your home appliances — lights, fans, air conditioners, refrigerators, and other devices — draw electricity directly from the solar inverter’s AC output.
Since solar power is prioritized over grid power, your home’s dependency on utility electricity reduces dramatically, leading to significant monthly savings.
5. Exporting Excess Solar Power
If your panels generate more energy than your home consumes, the surplus automatically flows back into the grid via the bi-directional meter.
These exported units are recorded and credited under your local net metering policy, lowering your future bills or even earning you financial benefits.
6. Importing Grid Power When Needed
At night or during cloudy periods, when solar production drops, your system seamlessly switches to draw power from the grid.
Any previously exported energy credits are adjusted against this imported power, ensuring uninterrupted electricity and maximum cost efficiency year-round.

WHAT’S THE ROI On ON-GRID SOLAR PANEL INSTALLATION?
Our Return on Investment (ROI) from solar depends on several key factors such as:
- Type of solar panels and inverter installed
- Amount of sunlight your roof receives throughout the year
- Electricity tariff and its annual increase rate
- System maintenance and performance over time
Example: ROI of a 3 kW On-Grid Solar System (Nagpur)
Let’s take a practical example to understand how much you can actually save.
Assumptions considered:
- Average electricity tariff: ₹12.2 per unit
- Annual electricity rate increase: 3–6%
- Annual solar system degradation: 1%
Based on these realistic factors, installing a 3 kW on-grid solar system can help you save approximately ₹16.58 lakhs over 25 years.
Here’s the math behind it:
- System cost (after subsidy): ₹1,02,000* – ₹1,57,000* (depending on city)
- Payback period: 3–5 years
- Post payback: You’ll enjoy free electricity for the rest of your system’s lifespan (20+ years).

Reduce your electricity bills by up to 90%, depending on your power consumption and system size. - No Battery Required
The grid itself acts as a backup. Surplus energy goes to the grid during the day, and you can draw it back when needed — no storage hassle! - Zero Battery Replacement Costs
Since there’s no battery, you avoid periodic replacement or maintenance expenses. - Most Affordable Solar Option
Compared to hybrid or off-grid systems, the on-grid system is the most budget-friendly option for homes. - Government Subsidy Benefits
The PM Surya Ghar Muft Bijli Yojana provides exclusive subsidies only for on-grid systems installed with DCR (Made-in-India) panels.
Limitation Of On-Grid Solar System
The main drawback is dependence on the grid.
- When there’s a power cut, your on-grid system automatically shuts down — even if sunlight is available.
- This happens because of a safety feature called Anti-Islanding Protection, which ensures that no electricity flows back to the grid during maintenance or repair work.
- It prevents electrical shocks to technicians working on power lines — a necessary safety regulation.
So, while your system won’t work during power cuts, it ensures everyone’s safety and keeps your connection compliant with national standards.
HOW TO INSTALL ON-GRID SOLAR SYTEM AT HOME?
Installing a rooftop solar system isn’t a DIY project — it requires professional expertise and safety precision. Experts ensure:
- Your roof can handle the system’s weight
- There’s enough shadow-free area for maximum power generation
- Panels are placed at the right tilt and direction for optimal sunlight
- All electrical work meets safety and grid standards
Here’s how GetRoofSolar’s professionals install your on-grid solar system step-by-step:
Step 1: Site Inspection & Assessment
Our engineers visit your site to inspect roof strength, shading, and direction. They identify the best panel layout — typically facing south in India — and set the ideal tilt angle to capture maximum sunlight.
Step 2: Mounting Structure & Panel Installation
Strong, corrosion-resistant mounting frames are fixed to your rooftop. Solar panels are securely clamped onto these frames to ensure long-term stability and efficiency.
Step 3: Inverter & Electrical Connections
Solar panels are connected in series (forming strings) and linked to an inverter. The inverter converts the DC power from panels into AC power for home use. The setup is connected to your bi-directional meter through safe, insulated wiring.
Step 4: Earthing & Lightning Protection
To ensure safety, both DC and AC systems are properly earthed. A lightning arrester is installed to protect the system from electrical surges during storms.
Step 5: Testing & System Commissioning
Our team tests all connections, verifies voltage levels, and configures inverter settings. Finally, your system is synced with Wi-Fi so you can track live performance and energy generation via the monitoring app.
