FIGURE 14.3 A Process Description Based on a Graphic
This description begins with an informal definition of “direct gridtie system.”
In the next section, the writer presents the steps of the process in chronological order.
The description uses boldfaced text to emphasize key terms, most of which appear in the graphic.
The description focuses on the operating principle of the system. It does not seek to explain the details of how the system works. Accordingly, the graphic focuses on the logic of the process, not on the particulars of what the components look like or where they are located in the house.
