With advancement of utilizing solar irradiation to generate electricity, solar pumps have started emerging to be one of better solutions to this industry.
Additionally the power output from the solar PV panel is in conjunction with the requirement of an agricultural pump which has paved way for utilization of solar pump.
A solar pump as the name suggest (Figure 1)is the one which relies on solar photovoltaic (PV) panel for electricity.
While the output of the panel may directly be fed into the pump, (almost all the time) a converter/inverter is provided to ensure that the required input power for the pump is achieved and maintained constantly.
