Siemens Generators Although the power from electric companies is usually reliable
enough for residential applications, many homeowners and
businesses desire standby or portable generators. Siemens
generators are designed for quiet and reliable operation.
Siemens offers generators in a range of capacities along with
associated equipment, such as transfer switches and manual
transfer interlock kits.
Microinverters Solar panels are another source of power for homes and
commercial facilities. However, these panels convert sunlight
into direct current (DC), and the electrical equipment we use
typically requires AC. Therefore, inverters are needed to make
the conversion. For residential applications, the amount of
energy converted is small and microinverters are used. Siemens
microinverters and related equipment are safe and reliable. The
trunk and drop cable system reduces installation time. Once in
operation, a web-based monitoring system provides a module
by module analysis.

Meter Sockets
Most of us are familiar with the watt-hour
meter located outside our homes. The watt-
hour meter is typically provided by the power
company and is used to determine how much
electricity has been consumed for billing
purposes. Each watt-hour meter requires a
meter socket to safely and securely connect it
to the electrical service. Siemens manufactures
a variety of single-position and multiple-
position meter sockets.
