The solar electrical service panel at the Shen house is located on the front of the yard, down a walkway to their backyard.  They can’t help but look at inverter every time they are walking by to see how much solar energy they are producing.

The Shen house is located in the East foothills of San Jose where the top of their solar array is viewable from the street.  We painted the silver flashing to match the roof color for better aesthetics.
