During a power outage, the solar system automatically turns off to protect utility workers that may be working on power lines. This means that the solar system will not provide power to the house during an outage. It will turn back on automatically when the utility restores power to the grid.
The exception to this is home solar systems that have IQ Battery backup service.
Our IQ batteries can be used for backup electricity in the event of a power outage or better control over your power usage.
