Re: Solar Panel Help

Sandrag,
The transformer is simply that in most cases. It steps down the voltage and isolates the wiring from the house wiring. Sine wave is the waveform and 12 volts is an RMS measurement. Peak voltage is much higher. In most of the country, this is classified as low voltage wiring and therefore does not need to be in conduit.
