I have a 1.5kw grid connected PV system on my roof and I'm wondering if it's safe to use the Powerline LAN devices in the house?

I'm not sure if one will interfere with the other.

Thanks in advance.

You should be fine. HomePlug/Powerline devices use a very wide spectrum divided into 'hundreds' of channels which are turned on or off to avoid interference. You might experience some loss of bandwidth but it may not be noticeable.
Likewise Powerline devices are well protected against spikes and your PV Inverter wont break it.
