Micro Inverter is a small inverter used in solar power generation systems, its main function is to convert the direct current generated by a single
Solar Panel into alternating current. Unlike traditional centralized inverters, microinverters are usually equipped with one per solar panel, that is, each solar panel has an independent microinverter.
Main effect:
1. Individual control: The microinverter provides independent conversion control for each solar panel, which means that each solar panel can optimize its power output individually. This maximizes the power generation efficiency of the
Solar Panels since shading or other influences only affect the power generation efficiency of individual panels, not the entire array.
2. Reliability: Since each solar panel is equipped with a micro-inverter, even if one of the inverters fails, the other panels can still work normally, thereby improving the reliability of the entire system.
3. Flexible installation: Micro-inverters are usually small and can be installed near solar panels without being concentrated in one location, so installation is more flexible and convenient.
Differences from other inverters:
1. Individual control: Compared with traditional centralized inverters, microinverters provide independent conversion control for each solar panel, enabling each panel to reach its maximum power output.
2. Fault isolation: The micro-inverter has the function of fault isolation. Even if one of the inverters fails, other panels can continue to work without affecting the operation of the entire system.
3. Installation method: The micro-inverter can be flexibly installed near the solar panel, and does not need to be concentrated in one location, so the installation is more flexible and convenient.
4. Applicable scale: micro-inverters are usually used in small-scale solar power generation systems, while traditional centralized inverters are suitable for larger-scale photovoltaic power plants.
Overall, the main role of microinverters is to individually control and optimize the power generation efficiency of solar panels and improve the reliability of the system. Compared with traditional centralized inverters, it has some advantages in terms of flexibility, fault isolation and applicable scale.
