Technical FAQs 4

Can a 30kW solar array be put on an inverter?

A 30kW solar array can be put with an inverter with an AC output of 22.50kW. What you "can" do is not what you "should" do. All inverters have different specs. And based on those specs you might be able to put a LOT more panels on than the rated inverter capacity. That does not mean you should.

How do I choose the right solar inverter type?

There are two categories to consider when deciding on the right solar inverter type: the solar inverter technology, and the type of solar power system the inverter is for. String inverter: A string inverter is a single, standalone unit that converts power from a whole string (or strings) of solar panels.

How big should a solar inverter be?

Generally, it's recommended to size the inverter to 80-100% of the DC system's rated capacity. Before determine the inverter size, the most important thing is to calculate your average daily power consumption (kWh) and calculate your solar panel array size to match your power consumption. You could follow our to make this estimation.

How does the inverter size calculator work?

Our Inverter Size Calculator simplifies this task by accurately estimating the recommended inverter capacity based on your solar panel power and quantity. By inputting your panel's rated power and number of panels, the calculator produces a recommended inverter power range that aligns with 80-100% of your system’s total DC capacity.
