Photovoltaic Solar Micro Inverter
Features, Advantages & Disadvantages of Solar Micro Inverter
POLYCRYSTALLINE SOLAR PANEL – FEATURES
- Micro Inverter attaches to each solar panel in the System.
- Converts DC electricity to AC electricity at the solar panel level
- Complicated wiring system compared to string inverter
- More efficient than string inverters
- Most Expensive Inverter Option
SOLAR MICRO INVERTER – ADVANTAGES
- Works well in shading situations
- Each panel performs independently which solves the weakest link issue with standard string inverters
- 80% efficiency vs 60% efficiency of string inverter
SOLAR MICRO INVERTER – DISADVANTAGES
- Most equipment and complex wiring of any inverter system
- Each micro inverter has a capacitor that will go bad, much higher maintenance with this system
- Unless you are using a monitoring system you will not know which capacitors have gone bad, which reduces efficiency
- Most Expensive Solar Inverter System
