Photo Voltaic System:

  • A photovoltaic (PV) system is composed of one or more solar panels combined with an inverter and other electrical and mechanical hardware that use energy from the Sun to generate electricity. 
  • A photovoltaic system, also a PV system or solar power system, is a power system designed to supply usable solar power by means of photovoltaics.
  • It consists of an arrangement of several components, including solar panels to absorb and convert sunlight into electricity, a solar inverter to convert the output from direct to alternating current, as well as mounting, cabling, and other electrical accessories to set up a working system.
  • It may also use a solar tracking system to improve the system's overall performance and include an integrated battery solution, as prices for storage devices are expected to decline.

In a photovoltaic system, the unification of multiple solar cells is Module, the unification of multiple modules is Array, and the unification of multiple arrays is Array Field.

Thus, option 4 is the correct answer.
