Technical FAQs 4

How does a solar inverter work?

Most homes and appliances run on alternating current (AC). This is where the solar inverter comes in. Put simply, a solar inverter converts the DC electricity generated by your solar panels into AC electricity that can be used in your household or fed back into the power grid. Without it, all that solar energy would be essentially unusable.

What does a PV inverter do?

The inverter is the heart of every PV plant; it converts direct current of the PV modules into grid-compliant alternating current and feeds this into the public grid. At the same time, it controls and monitors the entire plant.

What are the different types of solar inverters?

There are mainly three types of solar inverters: string inverters, which connect multiple solar panels in series; microinverters, which are installed on each individual panel; and hybrid inverters, which can manage solar panels and batteries simultaneously.

Can a solar inverter convert DC to AC?

Besides converting DC to AC on your solar array, inverters also offer system monitoring, grid interface if you are grid-tied, power production, and safe system operation as well as maximum power output. See also: What Is A Solar Inverter? (Explained With Examples)
