This is a purely hypothetical question. Lets say I have a solar panel and I make an "inverter" that produces a 340V (680Vpp) square wave and can perfectly sync with the grid. Since a 240V grid has a peak voltage of 339V my inverter's output is always higher than the grid's voltage, so if I was to connect my inverter to the grid, power would flow from the solar panel to the grid offsetting some of my home's power usage.
Questions:
Would that actually work and result in a lower energy bill?
Would the fact that my power output is minimal compared the size of the power grid be enough to stop my inverter's bad output from causing damage to any connected devices?
Obviously, no electricity company would ever allow you to connect such a device to the power grid and connecting anything without permission is illegal, I know.
