This paper introduces an ON-Grid system in which a solar source serves as a bidirectional DC offset to a controllable grid voltage source which then drives a typical home appliance (Heating Appliance). The output from the solar voltage is first boosted using a DC-DC boost converter, then passed through an inverter to get an AC square waveform which is then connected in series to a controllable grid voltage source. The design, simulation and the practical implementation are discussed in this paper. Furthermore, to protect the solar panel, safety measures were added.
