The key role of the grid-interactive or synchronous inverters or simply the grid-tie inverter (GTI) is to synchronize the phase, voltage, and frequency of the power line with that of the grid. Solar grid-tie inverters are designed to quickly disconnect from the grid if the utility grid goes down. In the United States, for example, this is an NEC requirement that ensures that in the event of a blackout, the grid tie inverter will shut
